NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Adopt
We feel strongly that the industry should be adopting these items. We use them when appropriate on our projects.
Since we last talked about Nancy on the technology radar it has become the default choice on our .NET projects. Architectures centred around small, vertical slices and microservices simply require light-weight deployment options and low ceremony tooling.

Trial
Worth pursuing. It is important to understand how to build up this capability. Enterprises should try this technology on a project that can handle the risk.
Nancy continues to gain traction in the Alt.NET community and we have found it particularly useful for deploying low-ceremony, lightweight fakes for testing in a microservices environment.

Worth exploring with the goal of understanding how it will affect your enterprise.
Nancy is a lightweight, open-source web framework for .NET. In the spirit of Sinatra for Ruby, Nancy provides just the essentials necessary to implement web applications with minimal extraneous code. Because the framework is independent of any particular hosting environment, the developer is freed from the IIS and ASP.NET environment. This makes Nancy an excellent complement to OWIN and compatible with other OWIN modules. We are really happy to see the emergence of lightweight web frameworks in a number of other languages as well; Spark for Java, Flask for Python, etc..
