Posted by binary in PHP

(cont…)

On the other hand, Microsoft’s Internet Information Server (IIS) is a group of internet servers which has additional fetures for Microsoft operating system such as Windows NT and windows 2000 operating system servers. IIS can’t use Java, Perl and PHP on a .Net platform because Microsoft doesn’t support those technologies but Web developers can use Microsoft’s Active Server Page (ASP)technology otherwise. IIS has server administrators which include console from which all services and users can be administered. According to www.microsoft.com “I IS 6.0 which is redesigned with a new fault-tolerant process architecture that greatly boosts the reliability of Web sites and applications. IIS 6.0 isolates Web sites and applications into self-contained units called application pools, which separate applications from the other applications that are hosted on the same server.” Now i give you free hand to choose on what server you want to use? IIS or APACHE?
