Service(s) in .NET Frameworks Contexts & Environments
When it comes to applications and domains, there are a variety of services to take into account. But, what is ‘service’ in the .NET Frameworks context referring to here?
Typically, here it refers to a baackground, or in-the-background-running process, that does so independently and without any user-interface necessarily, in its own user session.
Some examples might include background processing services , case scenarios, testing tools, monitoring of files, creating and installing projects, implementing services, managing and creating projects, suggested practices need all to be thoroughly covered. Certificate and remoting services, services installer, web-monitoring services, CSP (crypto services provider), directory services and permissions, all could fall under this nomer. But what is it and how are they used, most effective, created, assembled, executed, maintained, changed and updated? Eventlog, formatting, IISM (internet, information services management) and others all get some attention in this programming development context and languages.
Creating, installing and maintaining, monitoring a service is not hard to do. This is something that does not require user intervention and can be configured to start when the system starts, runs or operates, when booted, to run in the background, or manually started when required, on-demand so to speak. Process list in task manager svchost as DLL’s. This is done through services control manager, for starting and stopping services. Adding forms and UI components are commonly possible and used extensively by developers.
