Publisher's Synopsis
Get this Fast Start guide to quickly learn IIS fundamentals. Internet Information Services (IIS) provides the core services for hosting Web servers. Current releases of IIS do not use a metabase to store configuration information. Instead of a metabase, current releases of IIS use a distributed configuration system with global and application-specific configuration files that are based on a customizable set of Extensible Markup Language (XML) schema files. Regardless of whether you are an IT manager, developer, administrator or an advanced user, this Fast Start guide will help you learn the essential concepts needed to successfully work with IIS. Covers IIS for Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2012 R2.
