Default Help with extended roof addition

We are considering extending our existing lanai roof over a birdcage addition app 8 x 20 feet. We have existing columns for support. Can anyone help with the pros of typical stick built roofing versus an aluminum type roof with shingles over top. We would possibly add windows later so insulation would be important. I have seen some aluminum type roofs with insulating panels that allow for a nice high pitch. Any help would be appreciated.
