What is the difference between .NET Framework and CLR Version

Question

I have Windows 2012 installed on two different Amazon EC2 instances.

On the first instance I'm running

Windows 2012 Standard (.NET Framework V4.0.30319)

and on the other instance I'm running

Windows 2012 R2 Standard (.NET CLR Version V4.0.30319)

What is the difference between the two .NET frameworks installed ?

Is there anything I need to be aware of when deploying Visual Studio .NET C# applications ?

Basically Framework is CLR and some other stuff: CLR + managed libraries and tools = Microsoft .NET Framework

While deploying you might want to make sure you are providing all the necessary libraries along with your compiled solution. Also you might - though I didn't check that for myself - not find some tools like iisreg if the full framework is not present.
