A module is either a Win32 DLL (native module) or a .NET 2.0 type contained within an assembly (managed module). Similar to a Lego set, modules are added to the server in order to provide the desired functionality for your applications.

In this video tutorial, you'll learn how to use the HTTP module. Take a look.
