Hi guys, Just a lettle background about me. I am a person who like to code for fun and for the past years I learned SQL Server, C#, Xaml.
And these days am thinking for developing apps for the mobiles. I did some for WP8 and I am starting to get into Android using Xamarin (iOS later).
What I need is a server that is cheap and stable that I can relay on it, that can push the data from it to the handsets. And I found that Linux CentOS is what I need. For this I am currently learning MySql for the database. But this come to the problem of either chosing .Net or Java.
I will be using Restful service to do the data push. I was going with Java straght since that it will be only supported on that system. But with the announcement of Microsoft that it is open sourcing .Net and supporting Linux, It got me confused of what to pick since both support Restful using (jax-rs in Java) and (WCF in .Net).
Please advise me on what to pick. And I am open to any suggestions.
