What is Application Pools in IIS? Please explain it...... [Resolved]

There is a nice article written by Abhijit Jana How IIS Process ASP.NET Request - http://www.dotnetfunda.com/articles/show/821/beginners-guide-how-iis-process-aspnet-request

As per that article " Application pool is the container of worker process. Application pools is used to separate sets of IIS worker processes that share the same configuration. Application pools enables a better security, reliability, and availability for any web application. The worker process serves as the process boundary that separates each application pool so that when one worker process or application is having an issue or recycles, other applications or worker processes are not affected. This makes sure that a particular web application doesn't not impact other web application as they they are configured into different application pools."

Read the above article to completely understand where Application Pool fits in while hosting the application.
