What are different IIS isolation levels?

IIS has three level of isolation:

* Low (IIS process) In this main IIS process and ASP.NET application run in same process. So if any one crashes the other is also affected. So all application and the IIS process runs on the same process. In case any website crashes it affects everyone.
* Medium (Pooled) In Medium pooled scenario the IIS and web application run in different processes. So in this case there are two processes process1 and process2. In process1 the IIS process is running and in process2 we have all Web applications running.
* High (Isolated) In high isolated scenario every process is running is there own process. This consumes heavy memory but has highest reliability.
