Developers can create dynamic websites and applications with interactive elements to engage visitors when using Microsoft's Silverlight. However, the website itself requires a Silverlight-compatible host to be accessible on the Internet.
Silverlight hosting is Web hosting that supports Microsoft's Silverlight technology. This tool allows users to create interactive websites with features such as streaming video for example on the Netflix website where Silverlight is used to stream video content. Because Silverlight is a plug-in for Microsoft's .NET Framework, Silverlight hosting must be on a Web server that uses Windows as its operating system. This also offers the option to use other Windows technologies, such as Active Server Pages or Visual Basic to create a website. Aside from Silverlight support, these Web hosts offer features such as file transfer protocol support so that users can access and add new content to their websites more quickly and efficiently than using a browser. In addition to this, Silverlight hosts offer plans with varying disk space and bandwidths options so that customers who use Silverlight can choose the plan that best fits their needs and budgets. Silverlight hosts include ASP Host Central and CrystalTech, both offer shared hosting where the user's files are on a sever with other users' files. Silverlight developers who need more resources may consider dedicated server hosting from SoftLayer or MaximumASP.
