What is the advantage of using a 64-bit architecture?
A. The advantages of using a 64 bit platform are twofold. First, larger servers with multiple fast, modern multi-core processors are no longer limited to 2GB of memory in an application pool. This allows your site to scale beyond what would be possible on a 32-bit server. Secondly, you are helping to ensure that your site remains compatible with technologies that cannot co-exist with 32 bit applications. Services like Microsoft Exchange and Sharepoint 64-bit editions can now theoretically be run on the same server as AspDotNetStorefront, saving time, expense, and management effort.
