What does the server IIS7.0 bring to us?

In the website server software market, it can be said that the open source Apache server and Microsoft's IIS server share the world. The former occupies 60.3% of the market share, microsoft's IIS7.0, which is bound to the operating system for free, has a market share of 31%.
 
However, Microsoft is obviously not satisfied with its second-party position. In fact, Microsoft is constantly improving its IIS7.0 software to win more market share from Apache. What does IIS7.0 bring to us?

The new-generation Microsoft Server Operating System Longhorn Server includes Microsoft's new Web Server IIS7.0, which contains many useful new functions, while people are excited about many new features of Vista, it is also necessary for our system administrators to understand the powerful features of Microsoft's powerful IIS7.0 server.

If you have been using IIS for the past few years, you must understand a major problem with IIS. For earlier versions of IIS, either you choose to install it or choose not to install it. You have no chance to install a customized version of IIS. If you choose to install IIS7.0, this means that you must install all functions of IIS.

This security problem has always caused IIS users to envy Apache users. To reduce potential security vulnerabilities, some of the main features in IIS 6.0 are disabled by default, but they are already installed in the system.

Now, Microsoft has taken a more reasonable step. The installation of IIS7.0 is completely modular. There are about 40 different components available for installation, so the system administrator can create a custom IIS suitable for them.

Of course, you can also say that Microsoft is learning from Apache. In any case, you cannot deny that this is a huge progress.

This means that we can reduce the number of attacks used by hackers, patch IIS7.0 in less ways, and simplify management. Therefore, from this perspective, IIS7.0 undoubtedly gives us a satisfactory vote.

In addition, once IIS7.0 is installed, this modular idea will continue to be reflected. For example, functions can be easily added or deleted.
