Internet Information Server Express 7.5 for Developers Released

To make life easier for your developers Microsoft has just released IIS 7.5 Express. This enhances their ability to develop and test web applications on Windows by combining the power of IIS 7.5 with the convenience of a lightweight web server like the ASP.NET Development Server (also known as Cassini).

IIS 7.5 Express is included with Microsoft WebMatrix, an integrated suite of tools designed to make developing web applications on Windows simple and seamless.

IIS 7.5 Express can also be used with Visual Studio 2010 as a powerful alternative to Cassini. The benefits of using IIS 7.5 Express include:

  • The same web server that runs on your production server is now available on your development computer.
  • Most tasks can be done without the need for administrative privileges.
  • IIS 7.5 Express runs on Windows XP and all later versions of Windows.
  • Many users can work independently on the same computer.
