Summary
The key features delivered by IIS 7.0 come from its modular design. This is the first time Web administrators have full control over the IIS server. It is also the first version of IIS that is fully extensible. It provides a unified request processing model that integrates ASP.NET and IIS. Modules are fundamental building blocks in IIS 7.0 server. IIS 7.0 provides numerous ways to manage modules (the basic units of the IIS feature set) so that you can implement efficient low-footprint Web servers optimized for a specific task.
