We wanted to make it easier for developers to package their applications so that others could deploy them hassle-free to production environments. We are thrilled to work together with our hosting partner, DiscountASP.NET, to debut the latest Web Deployment Tool and to offer a sandbox environment so developers can get first-hand experience to test these new publishing scenarios.”
DiscountASP.NET and Microsoft announce a partnership to offer a free open beta sandbox hosting program for testing the next-generation Web Deployment Tool from Microsoft. This program is designed for developers to experience and provide feedback on next-generation web application packaging and deployment scenarios.
