WAS is completely separated from the IIS hosting environment
and provides a protocol-agnostic activation mechanism, so
you aren’t limited only to HTTP. WAS allows you to choose
the most appropriate protocol for your needs.These
capabilities are implemented in the form of protocol
handlers, which manage communication between the worker
process and the Windows service. There are two types of
protocol handlers loaded when the WAS activates a worker
process instance: Process Protocol Handler (PPH) and App
Domain Protocol Handler (ADPH).Because of these reason use
of WAS come into picture.
