    What do you suggest for creating data intensive web applications? Silverlight or ASP.net? (data intensive applications like asset management system or warehouse management system) Can you tell me your reasons ? Thank you in advance ;-)

      The question is far too broad for the very limited amount of information given.


      only two letters away from being an asset

        Let's say, I am going to implement lots of master-details form. Which way is the best for implementing this kind of applications?

          Again, there are many factors to consider for which you have not provided any information. The answer is, both will work.

            Well.. I think for data - centric application, if you dont need to offline data access from the client, you should go for ASP.NET. If you are more bothered about design, then go for silverlight. Generally, the basic motive of silverlight application is not to show data in Grid... Its primary motive is to show animation... create Rich applications ... So for Asset Management, WareHouse Management -- I go for ASP.NET for Online Video Showcase - I would go for Silverlight. :rose:

              Like Mark mentions, both will work. However, ASP.net is a more mature technology, so you might want to go with that just so the learning curve isn't as difficult. Or maybe you want to go with Silverlight because of its exciting binding and graphics capabilities. I've personally only worked with WPF (you might consider XPAPS if the client machines are all using Windows machines with XP and up), but I hear Silverlight and WPF are getting more and more similar as time goes on. I'd personally just go with Silverlight because it seems like more fun. But if most of the work in on the server, maybe you should consider ASP.net, which is by default more geared toward server side processing. If you go with Silverlight, you may have to rely on web services to perform your server side processing in a secure manner. Again, that's a fun technology, but it is more to learn and it hasn't been around as long as ASP.net, so ASP.net will have more examples on the web of what people have run into and how to overcome challenges.

              Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.
