ASP.NET 5 – Features

• Agility• Control• Speed• Client side tools• Performance• Cloud support• Cross Platform• Web Standards• Browser tooling support

Agility

Faster Development Cycle• Features are shipped as packages

• Framework is part of the application (.NET Core)

More Control• Only zero-day security bugs will be patched automatically

• Same code running from development to production

• New version choice in the hands of the developers

Speed

Development productivity + low friction• No compilation => Save and refresh

• Framework is part of the application (.NET Core)

Improved runtime performance• Faster startup times (~2-3”)

• Lower memory / higher density for HTTP Requests (> 90%)

• Modular, only pull the functionality and features required

• Raw sockets/full framework or both

Cloud-ready

Seamless transition from on-premise to the cloud• No code changes required

Diagnostics• Run/Debug directly in the Cloud

• Tracing/Logging without re-deploy

Cloud ready and cloud optimized• Consistent configuration across environments• Session and Cache providers same for on-premise and cloud operation

Cross-Platform

Truly OSS where anyone can contribure

Editors• Visual Studio, any text editor, cloud editors
