Deploy ASP.NET MVC on Linux: Best Practices, Tools & Surprises
I'm wondering about best practices to develop ASP.NET MVC apps with an option to deploy on Linux. If you are creating these kinds of MVC apps,
The company I work for targets Mono on Linux as our main deployment environment. Thus there is no "additional" work - we provide the whole stack, from hardware, through operating system (customized and trimmed) to applications. Using Open Source gives huge savings for us and our clients (and yes, we do contribute back to the OS Projects we rely on).
The important thing is to constantly test using your actual target (sorry, Mono on Windows doesn't count). Sure, developers use Visual Studio, but the continous integration (using CruiseControl.Net, you'll need Mono 2.4.2 to run it on Linux) is done both on Windows and Linux, testing all Mono versions we expect to work on (it got much more stable recently, but still, regressions do happen between releases). It's quite easy to run parallel Mono versions on one *nix system, you can even include an svn snapshot build if you prefer to catch upstream regressions early. If you don't roll out your own distribution, then remember that most Linux vendors ship Mono with custom patches - this has caused problems for us before. Also, many distributions have a lot of lag updating Mono, and this is a rapidly advancing project.
For database layer we use mostly "plain" ADO.NET - Oracle (with dotConnect for Oracle, they support Mono) and SQLite (Mono ships with a working connector). I have also used the official ADO.NET Driver for MySQL (Connector/NET) and it, too, works well. ORM mappings are more tricky, but NHibernate is usable (keep in mind that they do not support Mono officially).
As for the build engine and tests - NAnt and NUnit are well known and well tested. With most recent versions of Mono xbuild (clone of MSBuild) actually got usable, but prepare yourself for contributing quite a lot patches if you decide to use it for more complex scenarios.
Write tests. Lots of them. Be prepared to contribute patches and bugreports, and if you use commercial components - make sure the supplier officially supports Mono.
Nathan Bridgewater's blog has some nice articles showing, among other things:

Take a look at the Mono project. Sounds like that is what you are looking for. If I remember correctly, they have ASP.NET MVC integrated into it now.
I have never worked with Mono, but from my understanding there are not many differences.
