TechNet Webcast: 24 Hours of Windows Server 2008 (Part 09 of 24): IIS 7.0 Centralized Configuration (Level 300)

In this session, we focus on the new tools and structures in Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 that help administrators maintain centralized Web server configuration. First, we examine centralized configuration requirements in previous versions of IIS, then we explore tools and options for storing both data and configuration information centrally in Web farm scenarios in IIS 7.0. Finally, we look at how backups and restores can be performed on a centralized IIS 7.0 Web farm.
