A single web application can be distributed (web garden/farm) meaning that it will run in multiple processes.</p></li> <li><p>Each process will run in its own app domain (every application pool is a separate app domain).</p></li> </ol> <hr> <p>From MSDN.</p> <p><a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772042%28v=ws.10%29.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Create a Web Application</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>An application is a grouping of content at the root level of a Web site or a grouping of content in a separate folder under the Web site's root directory.</p> </blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.applicationhost/applicationpools" rel="noreferrer">Application Pools</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>An application pool defines a group of one or more worker processes, configured with common settings that serve requests to one or more applications that are assigned to that application pool. Because application pools allow a set of Web applications to share one or more similarly configured worker processes, they provide a convenient way to isolate a set of Web applications from other Web applications on the server computer. Process boundaries separate each worker process; therefore, application problems in one application pool do not affect Web sites or applications in other application pools. Application pools significantly increase both the reliability and manageability of your Web infrastructure.</p> </blockquote>
