The .NET framework represents a new platform for the next generation of software development. While it is large and encompassing, it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Microsoft's .NET is a Web Services platform that allows developers to standardize applications across platforms and devices. Based on common standards developed by the Web Services Interoperability Organization, Web Services are building block applications that connect to each other as well as to other larger applications via the internet. Web Services and .NET are to application integration what the web has proven to be for information access: a common framework for accomplishing complex tasks.
