C # Windows Service Alternative

2

Hello, I have some windows services written in C # (Framework 4.0) running on server here in the company, these services perform some monitoring to leave information available for when the user logs into the asp.net system.

We will no longer use the internal server to use an external hosting, there is an alternative for windows services to be hosted, because in these external hosting it is not possible to install a windows service. At first we will use the UOL Host but if someone suggests a better hosting thank you.

I count on your help.

Thank you

What you described the best for your scenario is you use an AWS, Azure, or the like, I do not know how critical your system is, but I would run away from those "xxxHost"

You can have the option to take a server, and run what you need in there, for example:

Without changing your architecture I would go to a server for example a "t2.medium" in AWS. (2 vcpu, 4gb memory) - Windows ( link )

Of course the hardware configuration depends on the size of your application and the like.

Option also has the WebJobs

In Azure you have the WebJobs where in case you will have to convert your services to the WebJobs to run on Azure.
