Internet Information Services (IIS)

Internet Information Services (IIS) is a flexible and secure web server created by Microsoft for hosting anything on the web. It runs on Windows operating systems and allows you to host websites, web applications, and services using technologies like ASP.NET and PHP. Setting up IIS involves enabling the "Web Server (IIS)" role through the Windows Server Manager or PowerShell, configuring site bindings to map domain names to specific ports, and managing application pools to ensure your web services run in isolated, stable environments.
