Microsoft's .NET: Still .NOT Fully Baked? | |
|
||
| Time: 14:49 EST/19:49 GMT | News Source: NewsFactor | Posted By: Todd Richardson | ||

After announcing its .NET initiative in mid-2000, then backing it up with a slew of releases and hype, Microsoft clearly was hoping 2002 would be the year Web services took off. But the calendar has flipped to 2003, .NET is nowhere near as far along as anticipated, and some observers are wondering if the software giant might have gotten ahead of itself in making such bold predictions. Microsoft is far from alone, of course. Web services in general, which have been touted as the next big thing in the aftermath of the dot-com crash, have not been the moneymaking powerhouse many had hoped -- and they certainly have not saved the tech sector from its deep slump. Granted, some Web services and .NET success stories already are in evidence, but many enterprises continue to take a wait-and-see approach. | ||

| Some would say Windows NT4 wasn't fully baked till Windows 2000 came out:) |

.NET is ready. The Enterprise is not.
After the dot bomb dropped, investment in new IT projects were under such scrutiny as to make new architectural ventures almost unheard of. Luckily, my particular IT department is a money maker for my company, and nearly every one of our projects were not only greenlighted, but accelerated. The way it sounds, .NET won't see widespread adoption until IT managers see widespread adoption of .NET. Sounds kinda cyclical, don't it? |

There's also the fact that the .Net runtime is, unbelievably, as slow as Java.
LMAO BTW, I know you said an analogy between OS X and .NET was ludicrous, but tell me, how long is it until OS X is fully baked? :-) This post was edited by n4cer on Friday, January 24, 2003 at 16:35. |

Every time I see a ".NET = Web Services" article I want to slap the author around with a large trout. When will these idiots grasp the fact that one is a framework and the other is an *application* of that framework. Ack!

My company will invest a few million to migrate our apps to .net this year and next. That same story is happening all around the globe. You just can't say anything bad about .NET The technology is sound, stable, and gaining traction.
On a sidenote, we also went down the j2ee route. $900k and 1 year later... we have NOTHING to show for it... except 11 terminated employees. We sold off our Sun boxes, and our never-used Oracle licenses sit idle. BTW, the executive sponsor was 1 of the 11 terminations.
