URL Rewriting with IIS (Internet Information Services)

In one of our recent posts, we wrote about the importance of using URL rewriting. In the post we demonstrated URL rewriting using Apache, Linux, and htaccess. While Apache is a very popular and stable web server, it is important to consider using Microsoft’s web server — IIS (Internet Information Services).

To accomplish URL rewriting in IIS, there are a few options.

  • ISAPI Modules.
  • Microsoft URL Rewrite module for IIS 7.
    • The URL Rewrite Module provides a rule-based rewriting mechanism for changing URL requests before they get processed by the web server.
  • ASP.NET Routing.
    • ASP.NET Routing enables you to use URLs that do not have to map to a specific file in a Web site.
  • Content Management Systems.
    • With the release of ektron’s CMS400.net version 7.6, URL Rewriting can be implemented directly through the Content Management System.

Implementing URL Rewriting is definitely worth the work to implement it. Check out some of the previous options for URL Rewriting for IIS.
