Windows Personal Web Server

The Windows Personal Web Server (also known as WPWS or PWS) is web server software offered by Microsoft for the Windows operating system. It has fewer features than Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS). From a programmer's point of view, PWS is useful in developing Web applications, on a localhost, before deployment to a test or production Web server. FTP, SMTP and HTTP are supported. A programmer can set up virtual directories and root them on an actual file system, before deployment. The usual web languages are supported, such as Perl, PHP, and ASP. It is possible to test database connections to a database server for a web application server with this setup, as well. PWS was superseded by IIS after the general deployment of Windows 2000 (NT 5.0).
