ASP .NET on Apache with Mod Mono

Free .NET hosting

Mono has an open source implementation of ASP.NET 4.5, ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET AJAX that can be used to host ASP .NET web applications on Linux. This provides a great free alternative to Microsoft's .NET stack. Apache is used to pass off requests for ASP.NET pages to the embedded Mono application server.
