Overall Satisfaction with ASP.NET

We are currently implementing a few microservices with .NET 6 for our internal operations. It’s very fast, seems quite reliable, has a huge community. It’s also multiplatform in ways, so we can potentially reuse some logic in future applications
  • 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
  • I wish there was more declarative programming like in Java Spring
  • Would appreciate more community based tools rather than Microsoft only as any organizational changes may cause future risks
  • I would like to see more native code inside of Docker containers for ultimate speed and minimal memory usage
  • Being part of .NET platform provides opportunities to integrate with a lot of systems and platforms.
  • It has flawless Linux compatibility and great support
  • Works great in Dockerized container environments
  • Cost efficient in terms of performance and memory usage
  • A lot of changes in recent years cause misunderstandings of approaches to be taken when developing ASP.NET applications.
  • Surely, .NET 6 is LTS and provides great set of features, but where are you going to find all the developers that have shifted from .net framework? - it gets hard there
  • So far, our productions costs are low so we are happy but future may be unexpectedly different.
We switched from django monolyth to .net microservices with ms sql accounting operations. May not be apple to apples comparison but we found ourselves in better place after the switch
