Performance - Creating A Mobile Version Of The Existing 3.5 Application?
Jan 12, 2011
I have an existing web application developed in Asp.Net F/W 3.5 and a mobile version of the same need to be created.
May i have some suggestions on:
How can i start with?.Some links & sites that would give me more clarity on how to approach this requirement. Is there any ASP.Net/iis features or Visual Studio option that ease this mobile version creation? As there are RadControls & Ajax used throughout the application, what should i be careful about? Will it require every form in the UI to be replaced and take the same time as the old UI creation? What all thinks should i be considering in the performance/optimization point of view?.
I have a existing web site which is developed in Asp.Net / AJAX 3.5, C#, Now I need to make this site available in Mobile version.. and I came across an open source tool [URL]
But I am not sure How do I integrate.. this in my existing application...
Also my site is running in godaddy shared hosting server..
creating a mobile version of the website I have created in WebMatrix. I have created the website and the email form and the data input forms and all seems to work ok with the SQL Server Compact 4 database, but I now want to create a version to run on my smartphone (it's a htc hd2 running windows mobile 6.5.3, though I think I may have to produce it to run on windows mobile 7 -feel free to comment).
There are some good tutorials out there for WebMatrix generally but I have yet to find anything covering the scenario above.
The other query relates to deploying the WebMatrix site. I know there is webhosting offered on WebMatrix, but I can't find a simple guide to what spec to be looking for in any package offering webhosting. (poor student looking for cheapest offer for trialling practise sites) I think I have come to the conclusion that if they offer Microsoft ASP.NET 4 then that should be ok for the Razor syntax and cope with the cshtml, and that at the basic level I am working at I don't need an SQL database as part of the hosting package as the compact travels as a file with the rest of the site.
I currently have a ASP.NET web application that was designed for desktops/laptops. Now we need a mobile version of this application. I have never developed mobile application before and am looking for any good tips before i start. Things that i have been thinking about like how do you know when load the mobile version or the normal version.
I want to format my numbers throughout the application in a consistent way, no matter what culture is chosen. In fact, it's "non-standard" even for the basic culture that we're using.
I want to format "{1500.50:c}" as: '1500.50', but the standard for my culture 'nl-NL', is: '€ 1.500,00'. We don't have the user-rights, since it's a webapplication, to register custom cultures, therefore we're looking for a runtime solution.
We want a "set and forget" solution. Not a Util class with static (extension) methods, but an application wide solution, so we can continue to use the standard .ToString("c"), or ToString("N") logic, which would follow our custom rules. This would be to alter the .NumberFormat of the Culture, but how? Everything seems to be readonly.
We need to expose some services (i.e. AddressValidatorService, CustomerFinderService) that currently reside in an ASP.NET application to other applications within our organization. Exposing these services via WCF seems like a natural fit, but I don't see any best-practices for how to pull these common services into a WCF wrapper in such a way that my existing ASP.NET application can continue to use them with minimal code changes and/or awareness that the service they are consuming is no longer in-process. I'm especially looking for recommendations on how to structure the existing ASP.NET solution and whether to host our new WCF in the same solution or in some new shared WCF solution referenced by both our ASP.NET application and external callers.Also, is it bad practice to simply promote the DTOs currently only consumed in-process via ASP.NET to full fledged data contracts or is it preferable to create duplicate DTOs that are explicitly decorated with [DataContract]?
i m creating asp.net Mobile website page to download symbian .sis file to mobile ,but its not geting download properly.its working perfectly on desktop.
i want to develop an asp.net mobile web application whith Ajax features. i dont khnow whether these technologies are supported in mobile developpement?
what stups should i follow to make such project ( IDE + SDK....) . finally what are free windows mobile emulator ( except Microsoft ones)?
I am not sure if this is the right forum. I can not find a forum for LINQ.
I am working on an application using LINQ. Application performance is not up to par and my tests show that it is LINQ queries that are slow. I was wondering if anybody can recommend where I can find an article about optimizing LINQ performance maybe by compilation or other methods.
And i want to make it mobile phone web, such that user can use it through his / her cell phone. I don't have any knowledge about XML And also i don't have knowledge of .NET. How can I do this?
Pretend i have an existing web-site, e.g.:[URL]i now want to expose a mobile version of this web-site:
m.stackoverflow.com IIS, with its host-header name resolution, would normally require two web-sites to be created: www.stackoverflow.com m.stackoverflow.com
Except now i have two web-sites in IIS. This means i have to duplicate code/files between them. i don't need to (nor do i want to) duplicate all the "model" and "controller" code between two web-sites. i would much rather have one web-site that exposes a mobile version.
i could have the default page in m.stackoverflow.com simply perform a redirect to a mobile landing page on the "real" web-site:
I have googled this topic and found lots of solutions like
[URL] .... [URL] ....
But still I am confused how to start. I have made some asp.net websites in which i was applying JQuery, Ajax, webservices this technology. Now i want to make that website in a lighter mobile version(windows phone, android phone, tablet, iphone, other mobile device).
i am going to start first mobile application.Already Vs 2008 installed, but no Mobile SDK.So please tell which SDK i have to install to start up my first mobile application?Or some VS 2008 plugin requires for Mobile application
I am about to a client develop a mobile version of their EPiServer site. The mobile version should have different functionality than the regular but some content might be shared so that it won't have be maintained twice.
I'm thinking about using jQuery Mobile as the user interface system to reach as many users as possible with the same solution and possibly 51degrees.mobi for best detection of mobile devices.
Does anyone have any experience in how to do this with EPiServer? How to structure? I'm thinking of using a sub-node (/mobile) that gets hidden on the regular site but I'm not sure it's the best solution.
i have developed a mobile version of a website which using ajax and displays at 100% width via css.this displays and works fine on the HTC phones, i have a few issues below, i have read a few post saying you can preset the phones browser settings do you know how i can fix the problems below?iphone - my css width is 100% the iphone is scaling the site to a very small versionblackberry - ajax is not working
this is my css for the mobile version I was just wondering how I can change the size of the textboxes for the mobile version to make them smaller but don't change on the computer version? if you go here on the mobile version youll see what I mean URL... the code for the form is inside this class tag.
<section class="left-col"> </secion>
PHP Code:
/*--------MEDIA!!!-----------*/@media screen and (max-width: 478px){ body{ font-size: 13px; }}@media screen and (max-width: 740px){ nav { width: 100%; margin-bottom: 10px; } nav ul{ list-style: none; margin: 0 auto; padding-left: 0px; } nav ul li{ text-align: center; margin-left: 0 auto; width: 100%; border-top: 1px solid #878E63;
I am trying to create a mobile version of a web application using VS2010 (.Net 3.5, not 4). When I search for information on ASP.net mobile I see a lot of references to mobile controls that adapt their HTML to the specific device requesting the page. Since I would like this app to be viewable on as many as devices as possible, it seems like it would be better to use the mobile controls rather than just create a smaller version of a web form. Apparently VS2008 and up do not include the mobile control templates, but you can download and install them separately. I did, but when I tried to create a test page I get a server error complaining that the assembly "System.Web.Mobile" could not be found. I double checked in my references and that assembly is included in the project. The file System.Web.Mobile.dll is also on the server running the app.
Is there something that I am doing wrong, or is developing a mobile web app in this way using VS2010 not possible?
I have a strange situation on a production server. Connection for asp.net get queued but the CPU is only at 40%. Also the database runs fine at 30% CPU.
Some more history as requested in the comments:
In the peak hours the sites gets around 20,000 visitors an hour. The site is an asp.net webforms application with a lot of AJAX/POSTs The site uses a lot of User generated content We measure the performance of the site with a testpage which does hit the database and the webservices used by the site. This page get served within a second on normal load. Whe define the application as slow when the request takes more than 4 seconds. From the measurements we can see that the connectiontime is fast, but the processing time is large. We can't pinpoint the slowresponse the a single request, the site runs fine during normal hours but gets slow during peak hours We had a problem that the site was CPU bound (aka running at 100%), we fixed that We also had problems with exceptions maken the appdomain restart, we fixed that do During peak hours I take a look at the asp.net performance counters. We can see behaviour that we have 600 current connections with 500 queued connections. At peak times the CPU is around 40% (which makes me the think that it is not CPU bound) Physical memory is around 60% used At peak times the DatabaseServer CPU is around 30% (which makes me think it is not Database bound)
My conclusion is that something else is stopping the server from handling the requests faster. Possible suspects:
Deadlocks (!syncblk only gives one lock) Disk I/O (checked via sysinternals procesexplorer: 3.5 mB/s) Garbage collection (10~15% during peaks) Network I/O (connect time still low)
To find out what the proces is doing I created to minidumps.
I managed to create two MemoryDumps 20 seconds apart. This is the output of the first:
!threadpool CPU utilization 6% Worker Thread: Total: 95 Running: 72 Idle: 23 MaxLimit: 200 MinLimit: 100 Work Request in Queue: 1 Number of Timers: 64
and the output of the second:
!threadpool CPU utilization 9% Worker Thread: Total: 111 Running: 111 Idle: 0 MaxLimit: 200 MinLimit: 100 Work Request in Queue: 1589
Web forms .NET application, is starting to meet 64 bits Windows servers and we have a 32bit DLL from one of our component vendors (its a hardware key, actually). I checked the instructions here "compiling a .net application with either a 32-bit or 64-bit dll". It is also what our vendor sugested. question: is there a performance impact on compiling a web application to run on x86 mode ?Please don't flame me for using a hardware key
I have a ASP.NET web application (.NET 2008) using MS SQL server 2005, I want to increase the performance of the web site, If anyone have an article contains steps to do that, step by step , In SQL(Indexes, ..... etc.) and in the code.
