Take the 2-minute tour ×  Is there a way to host an ongoing
process in IIS? Let's say i'm writing an invoicing web site and
every so often I need to send out scheduled invoices. This is
really part of my invoicing app and I'd like it to be deployed
as part of my invoicing app, by copying files to the web server.
I don't want the deployment headaches or the awkward separation
that would come with writing this as a Windows Service. Is there
a way this can be done in IIS?  share|improve this question add
comment  2 Answers  Probably your simplest solution would be to
develop a simple console EXE that does its thing and you
schedule it in Scheduled Tasks. Updates to the EXE are done the
same way as the web app, just overwrite the file.  share|improve
