If you have to choose between IIS and Apache which one would you opt for? I mean in term of ease of administration, performance, security .. we are planning to install this in a clustered environment with load balancing software and would like to know if you had issues if any with running Mid-Tier against IIS or Apache?
I would use Apache, since you can use this on both Windows and Unix. IIS is only available for Windows. And since we are running ARS on Unix, the choice is obvious. The great plus is that with using Apache is that you can change from a Unix to Windows (or vice versa) and keep your Apache configuration file. Some adjustments are needed due to different pathnames c:\path/to/dir vs /path/to/dir. And also modules which are loaded LoadModule mod_something.dll vs mod_something.so. But these changes are trivial. IMO Apache is easier to configure, but IIS admins might disagree on this.
