Web technology is constantly evolving at an ever increasing pace

e-mango has been around since the early days of the web and we have seen ideas and technologies come and go. We appreciate that the use of cutting edge technology ensures our developers keep up with your ideas and stay ahead of the rest

Here are some of the technologies we currently use, this is not an exhaustive list and we are always researching and testing new technologies.

  • ASP.NET is a web application framework from Microsoft used for building dynamic web applications and web services.
  • C# is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft as part of the .NET initiative.
  • ColdFusion is an application server and software development framework used for the development of dynamic web sites. ColdFusion is a similar product to Microsoft ASP.NET.  The primary distinguishing feature of ColdFusion is its associated scripting language, ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML).
  • Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system (RDBMS).  Amongst many other features, SQL Server provides, SQL Full Text Indexing Service for fast, accurate and efficient data searching.
  • XML is used to facilitate the sharing of structured data across different information systems.
  • AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is a group of inter-related web development techniques used for creating interactive web applications; this is used to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, functionality and usability.
