The business end of .Net upgrades

While developers love MVC, many business owners have been frustrated with what appears to be a massive loss of investment. After putting huge amounts of money into converting Classic ASP sites into WebForms, suddenly the market for WebForms developers is tightening up. MVC is the new cool thing. (and it is pretty cool) Unfortunately, most developers don’t realize the amount of investment made by businesses to convert their classic ASP sites into WebForms. With a large and complex database system, that change was probably extremely expensive. We could convert any website into MVC in a few weeks, but converting an ERP system could take years. Moreover, the risk of failure is immense. Shutting down 50 warehouses pick-lines, for example, could cost millions.

Using S3 to host static web pages or store objects used by other web pages can load content securely by configuring an S3 bucket to explicitly enable cross-origin requests. With the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) policy enabled, assets such as web fonts and images stored in an S3 bucket can be safely referenced by external web pages, style sheets, and HTML5 applications.
