In this video Ayende criticizes the host for using asp.net membership. If asp.net membership is not good to use - what is? In the video Ayende did not mention what else you could use but just pointed out that asp.net membership should not be used. Do you know what other good alternatives are out there for asp.net membership?
The ASP.NET membership provider is a feature that enables ASP.NET developers to create Web sites that allow users to create unique user name and password combinations. With this facility, any user can establish an account with the site, and sign in for exclusive access to the site and its services.
Authorization: It is the process of checking that the user is applicable for the process or not. Membership providers in ASP.NET MVC. Roles based authentication for user in ASP.NET MVC.
The membership element is a sub-element of the system. web section. You can enable ASP.NET Membership for an application by directly editing the Web. config file for that application, or you can use the Web Site Administration Tool, which provides a wizard-based interface.
Ayende has 'strong' opinions. :-) I'd suggest the suitability of ASP.NET membership really depends on what you're trying to achieve. This question shows some pros and cons and some ideas of working in alternatives. The point is it is very extensible so you can use as much or as little of it as you want.
Personally, I'm having a lot of fun with FluentSecurity just now, although it is targeted at MVC specifically.
EDIT: Another question on this, and another.
