4.5.1    ADO.NET
ADO.NET is a set of classes that expose data access services to the .NET programmer (Source: Google). ADO.NET provides a rich set of components for creating
distributed, data-sharing applications. It is an integral part of the .NET Framework, providing access to relational, XML, and application data. ADO.NET supports a variety of development needs, including the creation of front-end database clients and middle- tier business objects used by applications, tools, languages, or Internet browsers.ADO.NET provides consistent access to data sources such as Microsoft SQL Server and XML, as well as to data sources exposed through OLE DB and ODBC. Data- sharing consumer applications can use ADO.NET to connect to these data sources and retrieve, manipulate, and update the data that they contain.   ADO.NET separates data access from data manipulation into discrete components that can be used separately or in tandem. ADO.NET includes .NET Framework data providers for connecting to a database, executing commands, and retrieving results. Those results are either processed directly, placed in an ADO.NET Dataset object in order to be exposed to the user in an ad hoc manner, combined with data from multiple sources, or remote between tiers. The ADO.NET Dataset object can also be used independently of a .NET Framework data provider to manage data local to the application or sourced from XML.
4.5.2    ASP.NET
ASP.NET is a unified Web development model that includes the services necessary for you to build enterprise-class Web applications with a minimum of coding. ASP.NET is part of the .NET Framework, and when coding ASP.NET applications you have access to classes in the .NET Framework. You can code your applications in any language compatible with the common language runtime (CLR), including Microsoft Visual Basic, C#, Scripts .NET, and J#. These languages enable you to develop ASP.NET applications that benefit from the common language runtime, type safety, inheritance, and so on.
ASP.NET includes:
•    A page and controls framework
•    The ASP.NET compiler
•    Security infrastructure
•    State-management facilities
•    Application configuration
•    Debugging support
•    An XML Web services framework
•    Extensible hosting environment and application life cycle management
•    An extensible designer environment.
