Personal Tier Architecture

Personal Tier applications run entirely inside of the Microsoft Internet Explorer process. Because of this, the Personal Tier has a different process model than standard ASP+ applications, and has a separate protocol scheme that allows access to files that are stored on the local computer.

In particular, the Personal Tier serves static as well as dynamic content.
