Build more Flexible Web Applications.

For developers wanting to create flexible Web applications, Internet Information Server 7.0 (IIS7) provides a powerful platform on which to build.

With IIS7, developers can take control of the Web server footprint to increase security and decrease patching, more quickly resolve faulty applications, release to market faster, and reduce support costs with simplified deployment and application configuration, as well as rapidly leverage new technologies with IIS7's extensible framework.

IIS7 is also more efficiently managed with the introduction of new management APIs, a powerful new UI, a suite of command-line tools, and the capability to manage IIS7 directly from Windows PowerShell™.

Design highly Manageable Applications.

Today's complex applications need to be highly manageable with respect to deployment, monitoring, and administration.

The following technologies in Windows Server 2008 provide this manageability.
Microsoft Management Console 3.0
Windows PowerShell™
Windows Task Scheduler 2.0
Windows Eventing 6.0
Windows Installer 4.0

Develop more Reliable Applications.
