Can .NET Framework WebApp be deployed on Kyma Runtime?

sumedhahire — Mon, 17 Oct 2022 08:08:34 GMT

Hello Folks,

I have WebApps developed on .NET Framework (Not .NET Core).

I want to deploy these apps on SAP BTP but unfortunately the CloudFoundry does not support .NET Framework.

According to documentation I realized that Kubernetes is backend for Kyma.

While Kubernetes supports .NET Framework, there is no documentation available on the same for Kyma.

Can anyone please confirm whether .NET Framework application be deployed on Kyma?

And what are all options available on SAP BTP to host .NET Framework application?

Regards,

Sumedh

Hi Suhmed,

as Kyma is built upon Kubernetes you can deploy containerized workload there. This includes .NET based applications, at least I am not aware of a restriction except that the Kubernetes nodes are Linux based, so .NET Core and newer versions of .NET will work, older .NET versions that need to run on Windows are not.

In addition, Kyma Functions support JavaScript and Python only as of today.

Best,

Christian

Thanks for your reply Christian.

There is option to deploy .NET Core applications which is platform independent but there is no clarity on .NET Framework based application which runs on windows. While Kubernetes supports windows workload on Azure Cloud.

I am aware of the offering on Azure which allows Windows workload. This is not the case for Kyma, as I wrote above

sumedhahire It's a bit dated, but just saw your question by chance. Have a look at my blog. There is no need to develop .NET on Windows. https://blogs.sap.com/2022/08/05/sap-s-4hana-cloud-and-microsoft-.net-6-deployment-on-sap-btp/
