DiscountASP.NET Cache Viewer Tool Debuts
Phoenix, Arizona
Pasadena, California – (Website Hosting Directory) – July 1, 2008 – DiscountASP.NET, advanced ASP.NET hosting provider, has extended the IIS Manager, with a global assembly cache viewer tool, in public beta format.
This will be the third IIS Manager UI extension module tool, released by the Windows 2008 hosting provider.
Global Assembly Cache (GAC) Viewer module: This tool allows customers to view and obtain details of the server-side global assembly cache assemblies. With the launch of Windows 2008 and Internet Information Services 7.0 (IIS7), Microsoft introduced IIS Manager, a new IIS administration tool which provides end users with a familiar user interface to remotely manage IIS7 server configurations. Using IIS Manager, DiscountASP.NET customers can view settings and manipulate their web.config files for features that have been delegated to them.
Takeshi Eto, VP Marketing at DiscountASP.NET noted, ”One of our guiding principles is to provide our customers with maximum control over their hosting platform. That is why we are very excited with new features in IIS7 that provide us with the ability to delegate website configurations to our customers and allow us to extend IIS Manager to address customer needs.”
The GAC viewer module displays details of the supported server-side assemblies, including Microsoft .NET Framework assemblies, and provides DiscountASP.NET customers with a way to check which versions of assemblies are available on their production web server as they develop their web applications, without having to contact Technical Support for this information.
Mr. Eto added, ”With the rapid pace of technology and the movement toward fully open alpha and beta software development, it is increasingly easy to have a local development environment get out-of-sync with a live production web hosting environment. With this new GAC viewer module, we wanted to make it easier for our customers to get details of the installed server-side assemblies, and help them avoid experiencing errors associated with version incompatibility.”
The new DiscountASP.NET IIS Manager UI extensions are launched as a public beta to get feedback from customers. To facilitate feedback submission, an IIS Manager Feedback module was introduced previously, where customers can send feedback and suggestions directly to DiscountASP.NET from within IIS Manager.
DiscountASP.NET provides Microsoft Windows hosting, as a Microsoft Gold Certified partner. DiscountASP.NET is one of the first hosts to offer Windows 2008 shared hosting and was recently voted Best ASP.NET Hosting Service in the asp.netPRO Magazine 2008 Readers’ Choice poll for the fourth consecutive year. Through strong word-of-mouth and their commitment to ASP.NET and SQL technology, DiscountASP.NET has become the choice for affordable enterprise-class ASP.NET web hosting.
