Microsoft ASP.NET is a set of technologies, built on top of the Microsoft .NET Framework, for building Web applications and XML Web services. ASP.NET web pages execute on a web server in IIS (Internet Information Server) and generate markup such as HTML and XML that is sent down to a desktop or mobile browser. This is important because the application does not require any installation on the client computer beyond a web browser. This means your application can be run from anywhere regardless of the hardware. ASP.NET pages use a compiled, event-driven programming model that maximizes performance and enables the separation of application logic and user interface. ASP.NET pages and ASP.NET XML Web services contain server-side programming logic (as opposed to client-side logic like JavaScript) written in Microsoft Visual Basic .NET or Microsoft Visual C# .NET. Our team is well versed in both of these languages. ASP.NET offers a unified Web development model that includes the services necessary for you to build enterprise-class Web applications. ASP.NET offers a new programming model and infrastructure that allows you to create a powerful new class of applications.
JavaScript (js) is a light-weight object-oriented programming language which is used by several websites for scripting the webpages. It is an interpreted, full-fledged programming language that enables dynamic interactivity on websites when applied to an HTML document. It was introduced in the year 1995 for adding programs to the webpages in the Netscape Navigator browser. Since then, it has been adopted by all other graphical web browsers. With JavaScript, users can build modern web applications to interact directly without reloading the page every time. The traditional website uses js to provide several forms of interactivity and simplicity. Although, JavaScript has no connectivity with Java programming language. The name was suggested and provided in the times when Java was gaining popularity in the market. In addition to web browsers, databases such as CouchDB and MongoDB uses JavaScript as their scripting and query language.
SQL stands for Structured Query Language; it is a language designed to access and manage data stored in a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). You can add, retrieve, remove, or access data within a database with the help of SQL at any time using some basic queries. In short, SQL not only allows users to access data stored in a Relational Database Management System but also creates, deletes databases and sets permissions on database tables, views and procedures.

MySQL is currently the most popular database management system software used for managing the relational database. It is open-source database software, which is supported by Oracle Company. It is fast, scalable, and easy to use database management system in comparison with Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle Database. It is commonly used in conjunction with PHP scripts for creating powerful and dynamic server-side or web-based enterprise applications. It is developed, marketed, and supported by MySQL AB, a Swedish company, and written in C programming language and C++ programming language. The official pronunciation of MySQL is not the My Sequel; it is "My Ess Que Ell". Many small and big companies use MySQL. MySQL supports many Operating Systems like Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc. with C, C++, and Java languages.
SQLite is a software library that provides a Relational Database Management System. The lite in SQLite means light weight in terms of setup, database administration, and required resource. SQLite has the following noticeable features: self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration and transactional. SQLite is the lite form of SQL which runs on low powered devices or the devices with low memory such as mobile devices, Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) or pocket music players. SQLite is not a client–server database engine. Rather, it is embedded into the end program. SQLite is file-based whereas SQL is a server based.
