The IIS team just published the new IIS7 improvements in Window Server 2008 R2 beta. windows Server 2008 R2 includes the addition of IIS7 Web servers and the revision, improvement, and addition of the best IIS platform in history.
Compared with earlier versions, IIS 7.0 has many notable new features, such as Microsoft. NET Framework-based global configuration files.
IIS7 supports PHP hosting through our FastCGI implementation, and we continue to renovate and improve FastCGI in Windows Server 2008 R2 IIS7. Enhanced support includes:
You can manage FastCGI settings in IIS7 Manager.
When php.inichanges, php-cgi.exe is automatically updated. In this version, IIS monitors a file for each process pool. If the file is modified, it will recycle the FastCGI process of the process pool. This feature is disabled by default. If you open it (through a setting on the user interface), you can specify the monitored file path.
FastCGI's FREB support allows you to more effectively troubleshoot PHP and other FastCGI compatible applications.
MaxInstance can be dynamic. If maxInstance is set to 0, IIS automatically monitors the system load and adjusts maxInstances. This allows us to optimize PHP performance.
Supports FastCGI Error Control Based on specific errors.
We have helped us cultivate IIS7, the best Web server platform ever since.
