If I'm not wrong, ISAPI (Internet Server Application Programming Interface)
is a way to integrate PHP into the web server while CGI (Common Gateway
Interface) just calls the PHP interpreter as an external program and
captures its output.

According to PHP manual ISAPI offers better performance, but you need that
there's an ISAPI module for your web server. Also, with ISAPI you can
supposedly benefit for the integration in some other ways. E.g.:
