Hosting a production site on IIS express?
Posted by *****, 03-17-2012, 10:43 AM |
Just a crazy idea of mine
Has anyone tried hosting a production site on IIS express?
I'm currently stuck on a windows 03 box, and I'm looking at using IIS express to update the IIS without upgrading windows.
Has anyone tried it? Is it a good idea? How does the express edition's performance compare with normal IIS?
thanks!

Hi,
Its basically designed for developers and works well for asp.net and php
You can refer following URL for comparison in detail between IIS and Express :

How busy is your production site, any stats?

It gets a few hundred hits per hour usually, with peaks up to a few thousand hits per hour.
My VPS is a windows 03 box with only 512 mb ram.
