Expand your delivery with our .NET development services

Microsoft .NET is suitable for mobile development through Xamarin, the framework that allows building native mobile applications for iOS, Android, and Windows using C#. With Xamarin, developers can re-use the business logic, data access, and other non-UI code across platforms. So, only UI elements are delivered for each platform separately, which makes .NET a cost-effective option for cross-platform mobile development for the business apps.

The advantages of .NET include but are not limited to support of modern development practices, cross-platform capabilities, a strong supportive community, a broad and versatile ecosystem, security, and scalability. Overall, Microsoft .NET provides an excessive toolset for building a wide range of applications with robust and reliable outcomes.

As .NET is recognized as the fastest framework on the market, one of our goals is to utilize this potential. UKAD's common approach to building really fast and scalable software includes:

• We build only stateless solutions, so they can have more than one duplicating instance without impacting user experience;
• Any stateless solution can be scaled to smoother performance under extending loads. Utilization of Kubernetes or Azure App Services scaling allows us to scale parts of the infrastructure that require more processing capacity to provide smooth performance in case of heavy loads;
• The next point is balancing the load to distribute users between instances. We utilize Azure Load Balancer on enterprise-level projects or platform-specific balancers, e.g. Azure App Service, for less complicated solutions;
• To deal with the limitations of databases, we implement optimized usage and replications of the database, as well as reduce the number of calls through caching with Redis.

Of course, every application, service, and API is unique and requires a personalized approach, but this set of practices allows UKAD to build a robust foundation of scalability and performance under our .NET-based solutions.

As a Microsoft Solution Partner, top-notch security is one of our main priorities on every .NET development project. We take every measure to protect both data and assets and follow the best practices:

• Utilization only of resources and technologies with proven security, such as Microsoft Azure certified under ISO 27001, Soc 1, Soc 2, and Soc 3;
• Implement automated environment analysis, using Azure Defender for example;
• Train our development team to security best practices, OWASP in particular;
• Arrange third-party auditors to inspect the code and the environment, when it's required.

We recommend our customers using organization-level control best practices, such as Microsoft Intune.

Microsoft .NET provides a comprehensive toolset for the development of applications that work equally well on various platforms, such as Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its rich ecosystem offers developers a range of libraries and tools that enable the creation of really flexible solutions with great performance on different platforms and devices.

A full-stack .NET developer is an engineer with skills and knowledge that enable work on both frontend and backend parts of web applications. It means that a single person can contribute to all aspects of solutions, from UI to server-side logic, which makes such experts versatile and valuable. On the other hand, becoming a full-stack .NET developer requires more knowledge and a better understanding of the ecosystem, so a longer learning process.

If you're limited with your current tech stack, UKAD can help you with the transition to Microsoft .NET, but keep in mind that it's a long journey. As soon as the transition to the new stack is quite similar to the development of a brand-new app, we perform it with less possible impact on the business processes. Our developers re-engineer the software feature by feature with careful testing and ongoing support to finish with a fresh powerful solution, but without interruptions of business operations.
