.NET Core vs JAWS: What are the differences?

What is .NET Core? An Open Source, General-Purpose Development Platform Maintained by Microsoft and the .NET Community. Cross-platform (supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux) and can be used to build device, cloud, and IoT applications.

What is JAWS? Javascript + AWS Stack – A server-free, webapp boilerplate using bleeding-edge AWS services. The Javascript + AWS Stack – A server-free, webapp boilerplate using bleeding-edge AWS services that redefine how to build massively scalable web applications.

.NET Core and JAWS can be categorized as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.

Some of the features offered by .NET Core are:

Cross-platform
Consistent across architectures
Command-line tools

On the other hand, JAWS provides the following key features:

Use No Servers: Never deal with scaling/deploying/maintaing/monitoring servers again.
Isolated Components: The JAWS back-end is comprised entirely of AWS Lambda Functions.
Scale Infinitely: A back-end comprised of Lambda functions comes with a ton of concurrency and you can easily enable multi-region redundancy.

.NET Core and JAWS are both open source tools. It seems that JAWS with 30.9K GitHub stars and 3.43K forks on GitHub has more adoption than .NET Core with 11.2K GitHub stars and 2.41K GitHub forks.

.NET Core

Python

I was researching multiple high performance, concurent//parallel languages for the needs of authentication and authorization server, to be built on microservice architecture and Linux OS. Node.js with its asynchronous behavior and event loop suits the case best. Python Django & Flash turns to be slower and .NET Core & Framework wasn't the best choice for the Linux environment at the time (summer 2018).

I also tested Go lang and Rust, although they didn't meet the quick prototyping criteria as both languages are young and lacking libraries or battle-tested ORM.

PostgreSQL

There has been a lot of buzz around having PostgreSQL for ASP.NET Core 3.1 web apps. But Configuring Identity Server 4 with PostgreSQL is a real challenge. I've made a simple video to configure the ASP.NET Core 3.1 based Web application that uses AngualrJS as front end with Single Page App capabilities with Identity Server 4 talking to the PostgreSQL database. Check out this Video tutorial on how to do that in detail http://bit.ly/2EkotL5 You can access the entire code here on github http://bit.ly/35okpFj
