What does mean "many" for you?

WMS is ok, but I need C# API to create any gis application (e.g. with
adding/modyfing spatial features, with requested by bussiness client
webservice interface, etc).
The problem is with scalability with using mapscript. Changing server from 1
processor architecture to 4 performance will increase performance but I
think that not much in really big workload.
