PHP V/S DOTNET
INTRODUCTION:
PHP : PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is a general-purpose programming language and open-source server-side scripting language used for developing dynamic and interactive web applications. It is especially suited for web development. It can be embedded in HTML (HyperText Markup Language). The important point is that it is open source and it can be deployed on almost all operating systems and web servers.
Important Features:
• Open source: It is open source so readily available and free of charge.
• Embedding: It is easily embeddable into the HTML source document.
• Cross-platform: It allows interaction with different operating systems.
• Object-oriented: It has the ability to call Windows and Java objects and its classes can also be created.
DOTNET: .NET (Dot NET) is a software development framework used for developing and running applications from the web, mobile, and windows-based applications. It is a free, unified, cross-platform, and open-source software development platform to develop desktop, cloud, mobile, gaming, IoT, and web apps. It has languages, guidelines, libraries, and various tools to develop applications.
Important Features:
• Language independence: It has a CTS (Common Type System) which allows the framework to support the interaction between applications and libraries developed using a compatible .NET language.
• Security: All developed applications are provided with a common security model as well as many inbuilt security features.
• Base class library: The base class library (BCL) is composed of classes that encapsulate functions available to all languages.
• Interoperability: It allows easy access to functionality and interaction between newer and older applications outside its environment.
MAJOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PHP AND DOTNET:
• PHP doesn’t take the system resources in abundance, making it easy for PHP to operate at a fast speed, and it doesn’t slow down the other processes. .Net uses more system resources as compared to PHP, and it requires high system configuration to make the system smooth.
• PHP provides more freedom to code and work as it is open source. In.Net, freedom is limited as we have to use visual studio IDE only to develop.
• PHP developers can use text editor for development like Notepad++ rather than full-fledged IDE. In.Net, we need to use mainly VS IDE only.
• PHP is highly scalable as most of the high traffic websites are using this, like Wikipedia. .Net is also scalable, and websites are used like stack overflow etc.
• PHP is free of cost. .Net is a Microsoft product and needs to buy the license to use that product. To use .net, it requires to buy windows as well, and it is expensive for most of people. Similarly, windows hosting and using VS IDE also need licensing, which makes development costlier.
• PHP has great popularity among the developers using it as a programming language. .Net is less popular compared to PHP according to usage.
• PHP is very simple and easy to learn. .Net languages are complex and difficult to learn comparatively.
• PHP has shown more flexibility and compatibility with every operating system. But it is doubtful in the case of the .net framework.
CONCLUSION:
Both PHP vs.Net language has their own strong areas. While building an application, there are a lot of things that need to be taken care of and to select an appropriate language for developing an application is one of the complicated tasks. Pros and cons of the language are considered for selecting, and most importantly, the performance, scalability, cost, support and maintainability are primary concerns.
