1.3 Adding Ajax Functionality with Ajax.NET Professional
There are a number of ways to add Ajax technologies to ASP.NET. Of the three covered in this chapter, Ajax.NET Professional offers the simplest and lightest solution. Unlike Anthem.NET, which sends the entire postback through Ajax, Ajax.NET Professional lets you call individual methods. This drastically reduces the amount of data sent across the network and increases the responsiveness and performance of your applications. Atlas provides both methods of working with Ajax (sending the entire postback or just calling individual methods), but the size of the framework and the client-side XML script adds some complexity.
You should consider Ajax.NET Professional when comparing the available Ajax frameworks if you are concerned about the performance of your applications, especially from the perspective of network traffic.
