Micronovae Ltd Releases IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0, “mod_rewrite” Compatible URL Manipulation Tool for IIS

June 21, 2007 — Micronovae Ltd announces the release of IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0, a powerful module for Microsoft’s Internet Information Services (IIS) that manipulates incoming URLs on the fly. IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0 is a versatile tool that helps web administrators and web developers in solving a wide range of productivity and security related issues.

IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro’s most powerful feature is the support of override configurations, widely known as htaccess configurations. This feature allows IIS hosting providers to offer their clients a safe way to apply their own configurations. Furthermore, IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0 is compatible, in both syntax and behavior, with the popular Apache mod_rewrite. This design feature makes it a major time and cost saving tool for webmasters, particularly for those switching between the two leading web servers, Apache and IIS.

IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0 provides flexibility in creating diverse URL rewriting configurations by supporting three inheritable configuration levels: per-server, per-virtual host, and per-directory. Its rule based logic, which is powered by regular expressions and a sophisticated command set, provides a wide range of solutions. The following list presents a small sample of practical solutions:
• Optimize websites for indexing by search engines
• Make URLs human friendly
• Increase security by forbidding access to sensitive resources
• Manage traffic redirection
• Block undesired traffic from a web server
• Serve different files for different browsers
• Create custom URL schemas
• Handle load balancing on a cluster of web servers

IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0 also includes a user-friendly control panel that supports the following features:
• Configuration text editor with syntax checker
• Regular expression tester
• Fine tuning settings
• Online update mechanism with version history manager

Pricing and availability:
IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro v2.0 costs $190 per single server license and it is available for download and for evaluation at http://www.micronovae.com/ModRewrite/Download.html. A “Standard” version is also available at the price of $95 and supports all the features of “Pro” version except for htaccess and per-directory configuration support.
