Internals of OWIN and IIS Integration

I am interested in knowing how IIS invokes the OWIN pipeline during the application lifecycle.

  1. I tried to know this and found that the assembly Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb is responsible for this, but a diagram explaining this will be very helpful for myself and others that are willing to learn about OWIN.

  2. With respect to OWINHost, I was able to figure out how OwinHost sets up the host and then invokes the other OMC etc.

  3. Additionally, I am interested in finding out how the HttpModules that we built in can be used with OWINHost and IIS hosting.

Having filtered through the web, I stand left puzzling and quizzing about these stuff. Suitable pointers or documents will be of great help.

The Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWebuses the PreApplicationStartMethodAttribute to bootstrap itself. The code for it can be seen here. You can read more about the usage of the PreApplicationStartMethodAttribute here.
