Why ... n-tier development. Typically 3 tiers: presentation, business logic 
and backend processing.  And the COM component is the middle tier ... 
enforcing business rules. ASP/CF acts as the presentation tier with T-SQL as 
the third tier.

Why n-tier development ... because of scalability, security, control of 
critical resources, maintainability, etc. 

The middle-tier COM component can distribute requests across multiple 
resources/servers. Also, these middle-tier objects can be MTS-ized [Microsoft 
Transaction Server] ... thus providing connection polling and multi-object 
transactional processing.

It is awful early ... hope that helps.
