ASP.NET A
Microsoft server-side Web technology. ASP.NET takes an object-oriented
programming approach to Web page execution. Every element in an
ASP.NET page is treated as an object and run on the server. An ASP.NET
page gets compiled into an intermediate language by a .NET Common
Language Runtime-compliant compiler. Then a JIT compiler turns the
intermediate code to native machine code, and that machine code is
eventually run on the processor.
MX record: Short for mail
exchange record, an entry in a domain name database that identifies
the mail server that is responsible for handling e-mails for that
domain name. When more than one MX record is entered for any single
domain name that is using more than one mail server, the MX record can
be prioritized with a preference number that indicates the order in
which the mail servers should be used. This enables the use of primary
and backup mail servers.
