DSpace must run inside a servlet container, so you need one of those (such as Tomcat or Jetty) regardless. But, if your IT people want everything to go through IIS, you'd only need to find a suitable way to proxy from IIS to your servlet container. Here we run Tomcat behind Apache HTTPD using mod_jk (on one server) or mod_proxy_ajp (on another) to link them. There's probably a similar facility available for IIS. I believe that Tomcat can also work behind a plain HTTP proxy but I've never tried it. -- Mark H.
