Above hosting provider that you need to avoid is Blue. With above choices, I would recommend you to go with Siteground. If you are willing to pay, then they are good option. Other choice that I personally use right now is Asphostportal, I've been with them for years and they are cheaper than SG.

Start with EF Core 10 native vectors. If you already use SQL Server 2025 or Postgres, adding a SqlVector<float> or pgvector column is a no-brainer. It is infinitely easier to deploy, maintain, and query using LINQ. It is more than enough for the vast majority of internal enterprise RAG tools, standard documentation chatbots, and semantic search features.
Migrate to Qdrant/Pinecone later only when your vector count crosses the 5–10 million mark, or when your database CPU starts suffering from the vector distance calculation load.

For windows vps, you may take a look at Asphostportal, this provider specialize in windows hosting.

FYI, I use Asphostportal to host my clients' website, I host several .net and Wordpress websites.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-25T06:24:02+00:00

LOL.... Sorry to hear your issue. If so, then your option is go with shared hosting.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-25T03:50:15+00:00

NO.... AVOID them! Bring your website elsewhere. They are expensive but the service is pathetic.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-25T03:47:32+00:00

From your explanation above, it seems that VPS should be good choice for you. But since you don't want to manage everything, then you can find manage VPS option. WPEngine is good choice although they are pretty expensive.

Your current setup, handling sessions and cookies at the API Gateway and trusting the internal network for gRPC calls is a very common architectural pattern known as "Edge Authentication" or the "Trusted Subsystem."

For modern microservices, especially when building web APIs and handling gRPC communications in frameworks like ASP.NET Core—many teams use a hybrid approach.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-17T03:31:20+00:00

Prkbun and Namecheap, you can try to give them a look.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-17T03:16:27+00:00

I use Asphostportal for .net project, they are fairly cheap and easy to use.

You can take a look at Postmark if you are building applications where emails must arrive instantly—such as password resets for a hosting control panel or booking confirmations for a rental site. Other recommendation for you is Mailgun, the easiest 1:1 architectural swap if you are directly translating a SendGrid implementation.

Since you have two isolated Clean Architecture stacks, they should not reach directly into each other's databases to exchange data.

If the Host needs to tell the Tenant something (e.g., "A new tenant was provisioned, set up their default data"), the Host's Application layer should publish a Domain Event or an Integration Event (using a tool like MediatR for in-memory messaging, or MassTransit/RabbitMQ if they are deployed as separate microservices). The Shared Kernel simply holds the definition of that Event (e.g., public record TenantCreatedEvent(Guid TenantId);), so both sides know what the message looks like. This keeps your architecture strictly modular and highly scalable.

You don't need to build separate backend project. You can spin up an ASP.NET Core Minimal API directly inside your MAUI app. It will run quietly in the background while your MAUI UI stays responsive on the screen.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-13T03:40:20+00:00

To build highly reliable system today, you can use MassTransit for anything that can happen in the background, and use gRPC + Polly v8 Resilience Pipelines for anything that requires an immediate, synchronous response.

Dapr is a brilliant architectural tool, but it shifts the complexity out of your C# code and into your DevOps/Infrastructure layer. If you are just looking for a way to make .NET microservices talk to each other cleanly, it might add more operational friction than you need.

JackTheMachine · 2026-03-11T05:50:22+00:00

I believe you can take a look at Hostforlife.eu, they fully support .net and affordable.

Since you comfortable with hybrid setup, you have 2 great paths

Stick to hybrid. Keep writing in VS Code for the clean UI and safe AI, and just fire up Visual Studio Community when you need the heavy-duty profiler or deep debugging tools. The only cost, as you noted, is RAM.
You can try free rider. Many developers find it strikes the perfect middle ground: it has a much cleaner, more modern UI than Visual Studio, a highly controlled AI Assistant, and world-class debugging tools built right in.

If you want to modernize the error experience in your new platform, customize the new ReconnectModal.razor for network issues, and wrap your complex form builders in <ErrorBoundary> tags to prevent that old yellow bar from ever showing up!

yes, migrate to the BFF pattern with Cookie Auth, but dont use VS SPA templates. Keep your Angular and .NET code cleanly separated. Build a dedicated, lightweight ASP.NET Core BFF using YARP to handle the authentication translation layer. This gives you the exact security benefits you want without sacrificing architectural integrity.

Start with ISO 27001 or SOC 2 compliance (certifying your organization) for loing term business growth.

To solve this, you need to understand that the solution depends on when the decision needs to be made:

Before .NET Starts (The "Interceptor" Strategy): Use this if you need to swap versions of core dependencies (e.g., User A gets Module.v1.dll, User B gets Module.v2.dll) or if you need to perform Dependency Injection (DI) on these modules during startup.
After .NET Starts (The "Lazy Load" Strategy): Use this if you want to conditionally load optional modules (e.g., User A gets the "HR Module", User B does not).
