What IIS serves
For the past few years, I've spent a great deal of time in the details of IIS. I learned how to build management extensions, to perform administrative tasks from Powershell and how IIS security has improved over the years.That said, a few weeks ago I had an opportunity to move over to the MSDN team and take on some pretty big tasks. I realized very quickly that while my skills in IIS had deepened, I lost the breadth of understanding I had in development before coming to Microsoft. It was very easy for me to lose sight of what is served on top of IIS as opposed to how IIS serves it.
