Top 8 Reasons to Move to IIS7

8. SecurityFeature delegation, built-in accounts, Application pool isolation, rich authentication and authorization infrastructure, request filtering

7. Single platform for both ASP.NET and PHPIntegrated Pipeline, FastCGI

6. High availability Rich process model

5. PerformanceOptimized for multi-proc environments, compression, SSL in kernel-mode

Top 8 Reasons to Move to IIS7

4. DiagnosticsPowerful, extensible diagnostics stack, run-time data

3. Configuration systemReadable, extensible, delegateable, distributed, centralized

2. AdministrationUser interface, remoteable, command-line tools, scripting and rich API set

1. Extensibility Run-time, configuration, diagnostics stack and user interface

Total Extensibility

Server run-timeExtend IIS in native or managed code via the integrated pipeline

Configuration systemExtend the configuration system with a simple XML file. Automatic support in the user interface, command-line, script, native and managed code apis

TracingFollow your requests from start to finish: get detailed errors, monitor currently executing requests, go deep with request traces

User interfaceIntegrate your own user interface with a few lines of code, get automatic remoting and delegation

Handlers versus Modules

Modules provide services to all requestsBasic authentication moduleCompression module (etc)

Handlers provide services to specific extensions

ISAPI handler (.dll)Static handler (.htm, .jpg, .gif, etc)

IIS 7 pipeline allows native and managed modules and handlers

“Integrated” application pool mode Use the managed modules and handlers

“Classic” application pool IIS 6 style invocation of .NET
