- ASP.NET Core is compatible with both .NET Core and (on Windows only) the .NET Framework.
- When deployed on .NET Core, the runtime is deployed with the application, rather than having a dependency on a system component.
- This approach means:
- there is less risk that an operating system update will break the application.
- developers working on the framework itself have more freedom to make changes without breaking deployed applications.
- But also servicing is harder since you cannot rely on operating system updates if, for example, a security problem is found in .NET Core.
- Microsoft has said it will come up with solutions to the servicing issue but it is not yet clear how this will be handled.
