These days, you may add, remove, and change any Web server functionality with ease because they are all controlled as independent components. Compared to earlier IIS versions, this allows for a number of significant advantages: To safeguard the server, reduce the region that can be attacked. Cutting down on the surface area of a server system is one of the best methods to keep it safe. With IIS, you may reduce the surface area while keeping your application functioning by disabling any unused server features. Enhance efficiency and minimize memory usage. You can decrease the quantity of memory the server requires and enhance efficiency by lowering the amount of feature code that runs on each request made by your application by eliminating unnecessary server features. Construct specialized or unique servers. Custom servers targeted for certain tasks inside your application topology, like load balancing or edge caching, can be built by choosing a specific combination of server attributes. Using your own or third-party server components built on the new extensibility APIs, you can add unique features to replace or enhance any existing functionality. Long-term advantages of the componentized design are felt by the IIS community since it makes it easier for outside developers and Microsoft employees alike to create new server functionality as needed. Additionally, IS has used Application Pools to componentize the robust HTTP process activation mechanism that was first introduced in IIS 6.0. Not limited to Web applications, this process activation mechanism can receive messages or requests over any protocol. Windows Process Activation Service (WAS) is the name of the independent program. Comes pre-configured with protocol adapters. By utilizing IIS’s modular architecture, developers can create strong server components that enhance or replace the functionalities of the current Web server and improve web applications hosted on IIS. Here are several justifications for creating IIS: Enhance Internet-based programs. With IIS extensions, Web applications can take advantage of features that are frequently difficult to implement at the application layer. Developers can create solutions with unique authentication schemes, logging and monitoring, security filtering, load balancing, content redirection, and state management that enhance the value of all application components by utilizing the flexibility of native C++ or IIS ASP.NET.
