==Big Picture==
The word "server" can refer to a computer ("box") or a piece of software (for example, ''SQL Server''). [[Microsoft]]'s web server application software is called [[Internet Information Services]], which is made up of a number of "sub-applications" and is very configurable. [[ASP.NET]] is one such slice of IIS, allowing a programmer to write web applications in his or her choice of programming language (VB.NET, C#, J#) that's supported by the Microsoft .NET [[Common Language Runtime|CLR]]. '''ISAPI''' is a much lower-level programming system, giving much better performance, at the expense of simplicity. While Microsoft is generally credited with the creation of the ISAPI specification, it was actually co-developed by Process Software and Microsoft with input from a small number of other vendors
==Performance and compromise==
