ASP
Developer Focused Hosting Platform

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft's server-side script engine for dynamically-generated web pages. ASP is a scripting tool for dynamic webpages. It is a technology that can be compared to Cold Fusion, JSP, and PHP. While primarily made for the Microsoft Windows platform, there are implementations of ASP technology on other environments. ASP is the technology that powers the dynamic websites, not the language that the pages are scripted in. There are a number of languages that can be used to script or program a dynamic website. However, most people assume that ASP and vbscript (one of the languages used) are the same.

ASP.Net Hosting Testimonial

"The power of ASP.NET and the reliability of Easy CGI's Windows Hosting have allowed me to build technologies that power a dynamic, interactive community website. ASP.NET partial page caching backed by a Microsoft SQL Server database allows the results of dozens of queries to be cached and displayed efficiently and effectively, providing visitors with a fast and seamless browsing experience. Leveraging this functionality, community contributors can edit content pages and front-page news items on-the-fly, without any advanced knowledge of the underlying technologies normally involved in the creation of web pages.”

Key Features

Language Independence – Active Server Pages (ASP) technology is language-independent. Two of the most common scripting languages are supported right out of the box: VBScript® and JScript™. Support for other scripting languages, such as Perl, is available. Whatever scripting language you use, you can simply enclose script statements in special delimiters for ASP.
Development with Scripts – Scripting languages are great for creating applications quickly. Compared to formal programming languages, you generally need far fewer lines of script to accomplish a task. Now that Dynamic HTML and the Document Object Model have arrived, you can even combine server-side and client-side scripting to quickly develop a prototype of your ideas.
Built-In and Installable Objects – IIS comes pre built with a certain number of objects. Use the built-in objects just like any other object in a script; by accessing properties, methods, and events.
Databases and Cookies – ASP make it easy to access data and put it on a Web page. You can simply display data from an ODBC-compliant database, or you can use ASP to make decisions about what to display on Web pages. You can use cookies, as well as session and application variables, to store and retrieve information.
Creating Client/Server Web Applications – ASP technology makes it easy to create complete Web-based applications. You don't have to use the full breadth of ASP technology on your Web pages, of course; you can simply use ASP as a template language to create flexible, easy-to-maintain Web pages. Or you can create a client/server application: define a directory for the application, and all files in that directory (and in all of its sub-directories) exist as an application.
