title: .NET Core Hosting Bundle
body: <p>As far as I understood the <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/iis/?tabs=aspnetcore2x&amp;view=aspnetcore-2.1#install-the-net-core-hosting-bundle" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Docs</a>, the <code>.NET Core Hosting Bundle</code> installs the .<code>NET Core Runtime</code>, <code>.NET Core Library</code> and the <code>ASP.NET Core Module</code>. </p>
  
  <p>It seems that there's a Bundle for every version of the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/all" rel="nofollow noreferrer">.NET Core Runtime</a> (<code>2.0.6</code>, <code>2.0.7</code>, ...).</p>
  
  <p>If I have a self contained deployment of my app, I still need the ASP.NET Core Module. However I don't see that the Module can be downloaded separately without the full bundle. Is there a place where I can download it ?</p>
  
  <p>If not: </p>
  
  <p>What's the point of having a self contained application, if I still need to install the whole .net core sdk/runtime bundle on my IIS Server? </p>
