    Chose ASP.NET
    We choose ASP.NET because our core business is working with the SAP HANA database using SAP Business One. We can develop state-of-the-art applications with Razor and Visual Studio 2022 fast and with excellent application performance response. Working SAP Hana with JAVA could …

    Chose ASP.NET
    ASP.NET is much easier to work with and ramp up than any other product that we tried. ASP.NET was also significantly cheaper to start coding with. We also had the resources on hand so we did not need to hire contractors or consultants, which also allowed us to go faster and …

    Chose ASP.NET
    Perl and Ruby on Rails were also evaluated as possible options to solve our business needs. ASP.NET is, of course, more expensive, but provided a robust and somewhat easier integration of the specific tool-set required to provide excellent service to our customers. The …

    Chose ASP.NET
    Compared to other Monolithic solutions like Java, ASP.NET can certainly hold its own. C# along with .NET functionality is a lot more robust In my opinion then Java Spring or Java Struts. The documentation and configuration is a lot better and a lot better maintained. However I …

    Chose Oracle Java SE
    ASP.NET and Java both live in a similar solution space, however, Java tends to be the better option due to the larger amount of available resources for it. Node is an interesting tool. It is in a similar space as Java, but more focused on front-end web application development. …

    Well suited: for interfaces between machines data and applications. Made as a service. For web applications in factories where you don't have access to thick clients due to the environment. not well suited: quick measurements and fast data transitions between different applications. When time dependency is needed, then you better can choose other solutions.

    Oracle Java SE is well suited to long-running applications (e.g. servers). Java Swing (UI toolkit) is now rather outdated, lacking support for modern UI features. JavaFX, the potential replacement for Swing, has now been separated out of Java core. Ideally, there would be a path to migrate a large application incrementally from Swing to JavaFX, but due to different threading models and other aspects, it is difficult. At this point, it is probably better to use an embedded web browser (e.g. JxBrowser) to provide a modern UI in HTML/Javascript and keep just the business logic in Java.

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • It has a great documentation so new or experienced, you appreciate quick access to quality information
    • It’s very fast, uses less memory than initially expected that has decreased our costs after moving from python
    • It speaks the language of the design patterns really well, so our backend apps are written fast together and connect to frontend systems flawlessly

    • Plenty support built into the tool and IDE like Maven, Ant, Eclipse, IntelliJ.
    • Strong object-orientation language and clear project structure.
    • Wrapper underlines hardware and memory management so the developers can focus on business and implementation.
    • It offers a huge library and framework support from third-parties and the community.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Net is just like plug and play, we have to focus on a logic of code rest part can be handled by ASP. Net framework.
    • It's a best for only web development.
    • One downside with ASP.NET is its reliance on the .NET framework.

    • Commercial Licensing in 2019. Oracle will charge commercial organizations using Java SE for upgrading to the latest bug fixes and updates. Organizations will now need to either limit their implementation of Java SE or may need to drop it altogether.
    • Slow Performance. Due to the all of the abstraction of the JVM, Java SE programs take much more resources to compile and run compared to Python.
    • Poor UI appearance on all of the major GUI libraries (Swing, SWT, etc.). Through Android Studio, it is easy to get a native look/feel for Java apps, but when it comes to desktops, the UI is far from acceptable (does not mimic the native OS's look/feel at all).

    Oracle Java SE provides the new features along with timely security patches. New features like Record patterns and pattern matching for switches are very useful. With every new release of Java, it is getting better. Sequenced collections are also an interesting feature added to Java. With all these new features, backward compatibility is also maintained.

    Java is such a mature product at this point that there is little support from the vendor that is needed. Various sources on the internet, and especially StackOverflow, provide a wealth of knowledge and advice. Areas that may benefit from support is when dealing with complex multithreading issues and security libraries.

    We choose ASP.NET because our core business is working with the SAP HANA database using SAP Business One. We can develop state-of-the-art applications with Razor and Visual Studio 2022 fast and with excellent application performance response. Working SAP Hana with JAVA could be more challenging because it has fewer developers communities, and it could be harder to find a solution for a question.

    Chose to go with Java instead of Python or C++ due to the expertise on the ground with the technology, for its ease of integration with our heterogeneous setup of production servers, and for the third party library support which we've found was able to address some challenging aspects of our business problem.

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • We realized positive returns due to interns and new employees already having experience due to the free academic versions available.
    • Being able to evaluate the express version prior to purchase was helpful.
    • Performance is adequate, but not as responsive as C++. I guess the trade-off is ease of use and being able to find qualified personnel.

    • The different versions make it harder to work with other companies where some use newer versions while some use older versions, costing time to make them compatible.
    • Licenses are getting to be costly, forcing us to consider OpenJDK as an alternative.
    • New features take time to learn. When someone starts using them, everyone has to take time to learn.
