Architecture issue (IIS and SQL server on same machine?)

[harinath]

Hi All, I need to design architecture on a file handling application through web interface. there will be limited no of users, and some DB logging will be there. so that database is not too complex. Is it ok, if i have database server and IIS on the same machine, and having a file server separately ( i am talking of the physical machines). Please provide your expert views on the same.

Thanks Harinath India

That should be fine, just be careful how you organize it and check that is it secure.

If u want to save/updates document file on the web server. I think u should check Dotnetnuke or sharepoint service.
