Differences between IIS 5 and IIS 6
The main differences between IIS 6 and IIS 5 architecture is summarized below:
- IIS 6 architecture moves HTTP listening into the kernel for increased performance and reliability. This means that the handling of HTTP requests has been moved directly into the kernel.
- The WWW Service includes the new Web Administration Service (WAS).
- The applications models supported in IIS 6 are:
- Worker process isolation mode isolates all developer application code from the main IIS services.
- II5 isolation mode, for backward compatibility for IIS 5 applications.
- IIS 6 includes support for multiple application pools, and each application pool can operate in isolation of the other application pools.
