Deployment of an Asp.net MVC application on the IIS server

Introduction

Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) is a versatile, all-purpose web server that provides requested HTML pages or files on Windows PCs.
Remote client computers can submit queries to an IIS web server, which will then deliver the proper response. Web servers can share and distribute information across LANs, such as corporate intranets, and WANs, such as the Internet, thanks to this fundamental functionality.
A web server can provide users with information in a variety of ways, including static HTML-coded web pages, file downloads and uploads, text documents, image files, and more.
