Running IIS Extensions on R 2 IIS Web Deployment Tool Can be run on full and Server Core installations IIS URL Rewriter IIS Application Request Routing IIS Media Services IIS Search Engine Optimization Toolkit

Web Deployment Tool Simplify the migration, management and deployment of IIS Web Servers, Web applications and Web sites. It can be used to package, synchronize IIS sites including content, configuration certificates and databases. Benefits Synchronize your server farm efficiently Package, archive and deploy Web applications more easily Migrate Web applications between IIS 6. 0 / 7. 5 with ease Features Integrated with IIS Manager and Visual Studio 2010 Ability to migrate the entire Web server, Web application or Web site Synchronizes only changed data Warns of missing dependencies during synchronization Automatically gathers content, configuration, certificates, Registry Keys, ASP. NET configuration Packages Web app or entire site Supports both live servers and zipped packages as source or target apps Administrative privileges are not required to deploy Web applications

demo Web Deployment Tool

IIS URL Rewriter Enables server administrators to create powerful rules to implement URLs that are easier for users to remember and easier for search engines to find. Benefits Easily define rules matching URLs and HTTP headers to generate more friendly and consistent URLs Protect content and assets from unauthorized linking and scanning Integrate with existing IIS features for management and performance http: //www. site. com/photos. aspx? user=ben&id=5 http: //www. site. com/photos/ben/5/ Features Integrated user interface Regular expression and wildcard pattern matching Global and distributed rules Access to server variables and HTTP headers Various rule actions including redirect and request abort Support for IIS kernel mode and user mode output caching Lower case conversion function Rewrite maps and rule templates Import Apache mod_rewrite rules

IIS Application Request Routing Increases application and server availability by using load-balancing algorithms to implement proxy-based routing for incoming HTTP requests Benefits Balance loads across servers to maximize resource utilization Manage and monitor multiple servers and Web farms more easily through IIS Manager Create affinity for server requests by client or host name Features Rules-based routing engine examines HTTP requests Load balancing algorithms pick appropriate content server Health monitoring to determine the health of content servers Client affinity to direct all requests from a client to a specific server Host name affinity to streamline administration for content servers Management of server groups through IIS Manager Supports Failed Request Tracing

V 2 RC Versions Now Available IIS URL Rewriter V 2 RC Rules-based response rewriting engine. Rewriting within the content of specific HTML tags. Pre-conditions for outbound rules. Setting of server variables and HTTP headers. Tracking capture groups across rule conditions. Logging of rewritten URLs.

Additional IIS Enhancements IIS Application Warm-Up CLR Settings per Application Pool Configuration Logging and Tracing New Application Pool Identities and Managed Service Accounts Best Practices Analyzer

IIS Application Warm-Up IIS process model is request driven To instantiate critical infrastructure and be more responsive certain applications need to be pre-loaded Application preload feature in IIS 7. 5 allows applications to automatically start without a request Requires IIS Application Warm-Up extension See article on learn. iis. net for full instructions

CLR Settings per App Pool ASP. NET settings stored in global ASPNET. config Can now create custom ASPNET. config files Specify location in application. Host. config Local settings honored at runtime – can be UNC path E. g. set maximum number of threads, maximum number of requests or garbage collection settings Add the following in application. Host. config file: <application. Pools> <add name="Default. App. Pool" CLRConfig. File="c: my. ConfigCLRConfig. File. txt" /> <add name="Classic. NET App. Pool" managed. Pipeline. Mode="Classic" /> <application. Pools>

Configuration Logging Tracing IIS 7. 0 does not include any built-in tracing mechanism for configuration changes IIS in Windows Server 2008 R 2 provides: Read / write auditing of configuration system Logging of events unrelated to Reads / Writes Logs kept under Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > IISConfiguration Four logs: Administrative, Analytic, Debug, Write. Auditing By default, all logging is disabled

Application Pool Identities All application pools run as Network. Service IIS in R 2 (and backported to IIS 7. 0) allows use of new “App. Pool” identity IIS in R 2 allows domain accounts for running services without management of passwords – Managed Service Accounts Identity type in IIS in R 2 is set by default to 4 (App Pool Identity) versus 2 (Network Service) – NOT in IIS 7. 0 / WS 08

NET Optimized for Internet-facing Web-serving environments not requiring authentication Can run Windows Media Services 2008, Windows Share. Point Services, Office Share. Point Server and SQL Server Does not require purchase of Client Access Licenses (CALs) or External Connector Reduced cost for Web scenarios Dedicated Web and DNS server Simplified licensing Supports 4 processors and 32 GB RAM (64 bit)

Summary IIS is enhanced as IIS 7. 5 in R 2 Mostly integration of IIS Extensions. NET on Server Core is biggest change IIS team continues to invest in Extensions
