ASP.Net MVC 2 and Oracle ADF are both MVC framework. ADF is based on JSF and has a long history. ASP MVC is a new technology to.Net framework. I have worked with ASP.Net and ADF for years. However, I learnt ASP MVC only two days since I bought Visual Studio 2010. Here I write a simple comparison between them.


View
ADF has so many powerful Ajax UI components that can satisfy most of requirements. By contrast, ASP MVC is immature. The ASP webform components aren’t compatible with MVC.

Controller
With ADF we use backing beans to handle events. And use page flows to handle page redirect. ADF enhances JSF page navigation. We can design page navigation rules by drag and drop with JDeveloper.
ASP.Net MVC needs controller classes. We must write code to define navigation rules. That’s really inconvenient.

Model
JSF and Apache Trinidad don’t contain data persistence solution. Oracle provide ADF-BC to fulfill the MVC framework. Data of ADF-BC can easily bound to UI. However, Oracle should continue to strengthen it.
ASP.Net MVC can use Entity Framework to interact with database. But I think it is another version of Linq to SQL. I don’t want to use it.


Besides technical architecture, IDE is a very important element to improve efficient. Visual Studio was doing well in previous version. But Visual Studio 2010 disappoints me. I don’t like its document. JDeveloper is a good environment to developer ADF applications. But it has some bugs. It’s often dead by improper operations. Test application is a trouble with ADF, because I have to wait about half a minute to let it deploy application to Weblogic server.
