Stellar author team of Microsoft MVPs helps developers and administrators get the most out of Windows IIS 8

If you're a developer or administrator, you'll want to get thoroughly up to speed on Microsoft's new IIS 8 platform with this complete, in-depth reference. Prepare yourself to administer IIS 8 in not only commercial websites and corporate intranets, but also the mass web hosting market with this expert content. The book covers common administrative tasks associated with monitoring and managing an IIS environment--and then moves well beyond, into extensibility, scripted admin, and other complex topics.

And, it delves into security protocols and high availability/load balancing at a level of detail that is not often found in IIS books.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
I really, really like technology. I have worked and played with computers my whole life. In each program I write, there exists a piece of myself within it. A program is much more than just code to me; it's a reflection of my inner self. I am joyful when people or companies get value and good use out of the programs I write. That's because the program is as much about me as a human and a person, as it is about what the program does. I write technical articles, blogs and books as examples for those who wish to hone the skills required to do the same, for those who have the same objectives and for those who have the same passion and connection with technology as I do.

A scarce resource! Much better editing than the IIS 7 edition!

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is information that is hard to find. There are only two books available for IIS 7 development that I would even look at. The prior edition of this book is one of them, but the editing and code examples made it clear that the book was a piece-meal effort.

The IIS 8 edition is far more cohesive, well written and absolutely up to date!

If you are administering IIS, this will be helpful. If you are extending IIS manager or the schemas of IIS configuration, this book is indispensible.

I bought this book for work to better understand advanced functionality and settings of IIS. In the past I was constantly frustrated with IIS as I came from an Apache/Linux web hosting setup previously. This book has taught me features I could not find on Google and has helped me figure out throttling and load balancing. This book life’s on my desk now and I use it weekly for reference.

Great in depth subject matter

Verified Purchase

In depth and applicable to most of IIS 6-7 as well. Gives a good big picture view of where MS is going with web services via the new IIS architecture and technology stack. Refer to it often as it contains a lot of information that's handy when working with this day to day, and has a lot of good recommended best practices.

This is an amazingly detailed and clear book on the ins and outs of IIS. I've been administering IIS for years and still found a lot of useful information and things I didn't know.

This book will get you from beginner to confident admin in no time. I don't know of a better book on IIS that I've found.

This book covered lot of useless information about legacy versions

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2016

This book covered lot of useless information about legacy versions. Talked about server OS which was not necessary and should have been focused on the IIS part alone. I having hard time trying to find what I want and turning to internet for solutions. waster of money.

Unless you're a total beginner, free online resources are better

Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2022

Verified Purchase

Bought this because I felt I was having trouble finding the documentation I needed for IIS 8; after scanning through, I learned it provides more or less nothing that you can't find online. If you're not at all familiar with IIS, it might have some value, but if you've even worked with it casually as a dev or are familiar with earlier or later versions, do not bother.
