Whenever we create new ASP.NET MVC 3 project, it follow pre defined directory convention and adds few files and directory to the project. However it is not compulsory to follow this default directory structure, but it help us to keep application clean & maintainable by grouping application component based on functionality i.e. controller, model, view etc. But when it comes to large project, it is very hard to maintain all components in one project.

Over a last few days, all are talking about asynchronous programming especially node.js and signalr. Microsoft also included AsyncCTP within ASP.NET 4.5. But it seems node.js and SignalR is winning the race. Anyway we are not going to compare AsyncCTP with node.js or SignalR. In this post we will see how to install and run node.js in IIS 7 with iisnode.
