Why worry about big traffic and scaling efficiently to serve billions of pages? After all, that is a high-class problem to have and you can rewrite the application when you have all that traffic, right?
What if you didn’t have to do that expensive rewrite to keep your site reliable and fast? What if you could focus on adding new features, new APIs and serving your users better? That is what .NET is designed to deliver. Develop once and move on. Scale is handled in the background.
If you are still wondering about scale let’s look at some of the truly large Web sites run on the .NET platform:
- MySpace.com—68 million people a month
- Dell.com—12 million people a month
- Monster.com—24 million people a month
