Visual Studio has its own integrated ASP.NET Runtime engine, which helps to run any ASP.NET web application with in Visual Studio. While running application from Visual Studio, you must have seen a popup notification in System Tray (As shown in below image) , which is notification of ASP.NET Development Server.

This ASP.NET Development Server is nothing but a executable file (WebDev.WebServer) which used by Visual Studio to execute you web application when it’s running in the context of Visual Studio. You can find the executable file at <\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\DevServer\10.0> . This folder contain two different executable

WebDev.WebServer20.EXE
WebDev.WebServer40.EXE

WebDev.WebServer20 is targeted to CLR 2.0, which means all the ASP.NET Application which are targeted till FW .NET 3.5 will be taking care by WebDev.WebServer20.EXE and WebDev.WebServer40.EXE for ASP.NET 4.0 based application.

The 11th edition of Virtual TechDays – being held on 9th to 11th Feb 2011. I am glad to say that, I will present a session on “Caching enhancements in ASP.NET 4.0” on 9th Feb 2011 from 3 PM to 4PM (IST) . ASP.NET 4 introduced an extensibility on output caching where developers can create their own custom cache provider to store the cache data in out of process. Output-cache providers can use any storage mechanism like database, file system, cloud etc. to persist output cached content. In this session I will be discussing the enhancement of ASP.NET 4.0 Caching by creating different custom cache provider for different type of output caching.
