IIS 7.0 – Extensões de Funcionalidades
Uma das vantagens da nova arquitetura modular do Internet Information Services 7.0 é a possibilidade de estender ou adicionar funcionalidades à um código / recursos já existentes.
Isto pode ser feito pela própria comunidade de Desenvolvedores e ITPros, que baseados em suas necessidades, criam funcionalidades extras e talvez queiram até mesmo compartilhar com outros, e até mesmo o time do produto, que pode facilmente implementar e disponibilizar módulos facilmente.
Uma maneira de saber quais módulos estão disponíveis é acessar regularmente o site WWW.IIS.NET, mais especificamente a área de “Extensions”: https://www.iis.net/extensions
Neste link você encontra inúmeras extensões, disponibilizadas de modo gratuito. Fiz uma listagem delas aqui neste post:
