Chapter 1. Introduction to .NET 10.0


.NET is a general-purpose development platform that features automatic memory management and modern programming languages. You can use .NET to build high-quality applications efficiently. Generally, .NET is available on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and OpenShift Container Platform through certified containers.

With .NET, you can:

  • Follow a microservices-based approach, building some components with .NET and others with languages like Java. All components can run on a common, supported platform on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift Container Platform.
  • Develop new .NET workloads on Microsoft Windows and then deploy and run those applications on either Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Windows Server.
  • Run .NET applications in a heterogeneous data center, removing the requirement to rely specifically on Windows Server for your underlying infrastructure.
