Technical Enhancement Witnessed in .NET Framework 4.0

Posted on by Kallala

Dot Net has evolved as a gem of an enterprise software development technology ever since it was introduced back in 2002.

Although .NET has been constantly undergoing some changes but the .NET version 4.0 has come up with some significantly important ones.

These changes are related to the overall architecture and greatly enhance its functionality.

Dynamic Language Run time (DLR): Engineers at Microsoft have come up with Dynamic Language Run time (DLR), which is built above the Common Language Run time (CLR) and facilitates easy interoperability of like set of technologies inside a regular framework.

It allows .NET developers to build applications using dynamic languages like Ruby, Python etc on top of .NET Framework run time.

A set of new services have been added through DLR, which allows the implementation of dynamic languages on the managed platform of .NET.

The dynamic type system, regular hosting model, and quick dynamic code generation are some modules that are supported by these services.

DLR comprises of 3 layers which are as such:

  • .NET Language Integration level
  • Language Binders
  • Dynamic Language Runtime Code Components

Support for Parallel Computing: Writing robust multithreaded applications and asynchronous code is possible with the parallel computing model provided in .NET 4.0. A managed library for design and implementation, called Parallel Extensions Library, will utilize the parallel hardware of a system to carry out parallel computing.

Managed Extensibility Framework: A new Managed Extensibility Framework has been introduced which can be applied to build lightweight, extensible and unified applications, by influencing the characteristics and benefits of the run time environment (CLR).

Although Windows Communication Foundation was introduced in .NET 3.0, certain enhancements like simplified configuration, IIS hosting, REST features, Workflow and Routing services have come up with .NET 4.0.

Similarly, the Windows Workflow Foundation has also witnessed enhanced extensibility in WF designer, improved activity model, and built-in activity library in this latest version.

Due to its advanced and hi-tech features like multi-touch screen and easy operating features, both iPhone and Android-based mobile apps have instantly attracted smartphone users.

iPhone developers have built a vertical hierarchy of layers of the menu instead of typical checkboxes and switches.

At Andolasoft we use cut-through techniques to deliver transparent and trustworthy mobile apps.

We have steadily made our ways through the development of stand-alone applications such as palmtop and have steadily made progress in windows based smartphones and PDAs like iPhone as well as Android-based mobile apps development.

Our developers are also specialized in cross-platform development in mobile apps. Our developers have their expertise in developing mobile apps on various platforms including iPhone, Android, Blackberry among others.

Utilizing the iPhone/Android application development, our experts have recently developed an interesting application through which you can give update about any upcoming events of your company.

You can post your blogs, let your company delegates know of any recent projects undertaken- there are so many things you can do with our application. With these applications integrated with the iPhone, you can showcase your successfully completed projects and keep your clients updated.

What’s more, you can integrate this application with Google maps to utilize it as a roadmap for getting the location update.

Why Choose Ruby on Rails for your Web App

Posted on by Kallala

Ruby On Rails

Ruby on Rails, popularly known as RoR, is developed using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern along with the agile development methodology. Ruby on Rails is intended to emphasize Convention over Configuration (CoC), and the rapid development principle of Don’t Repeat Yourself (DRY).

Benefits of Ruby on Rails

  • Development Speed

Ruby on Rails allows features to be developed quickly by using existing methods and components with the help of modular design. The factors behind its time-saving results include- modular design, leaner code base, and availability of existing gems/plug-ins. So the development cycles in Rails are shorter as compared to its counterparts.

  • Flexibility

In Rails, there are lots of in-built components of specific functionalities already available. These modules can be reused in development rather than building everything from scratch. Ruby on Rails offers the ability to easily modify a web application in response to customers’ needs.

  • Cost-effectiveness

In addition to the flexibility and development speed, Ruby on Rails is an open-source web application framework that helps in developing cost-effective web applications without sacrificing performance, speed, and quality.

  • High code quality

The Ruby development community is very active and responsive. There are a lot of resources available over the Internet and any problem encountered during ROR development can be easily solved by communicating to the community. Also, security updates and bug fixes are released regularly which helps in maintaining top-notch code quality for application development.

  • Industry support

There are many Ruby on Rails web hosting/consulting companies such as AWS (Amazon EC2), Heroku & EngineYard offering cloud-based services. They offer a scalable hosting environment and provide support for the development and deployment of Ruby on Rails applications.

Andolasoft offers quality rails development service. We specialize in developing database-driven web applications in an efficient and hassle-free way. Visit our portfolio and Contact us for further details.
