Nilesh Shah · Answer

both are different terms there is no comparision as such IIS server is Microsoft product and its a web server used to host websites developed mainly in MS Dot NET platform though it can also host PHP sites Production server means any server on which your live application is hosted. In case of MS dot net applications a production server may be running IIS server on which your live application is hosted. In case of Java applications a production server may be running Tomcat server on which JSP website is hosted.
