Hai Rajalingam, WCF is the communication technology which provides the communication between your application and the database or another service. It is similar to the Web Services with additional advantages. Where the ADO.net technology doesn't work or doesn't support there we can use the WCF for providing the communication between the database and the application. Most frequently used applications which are made using the WPF and Silverlight uses the WCF for their communication because the ADO.Net doesn't support for them, Hope it will give you some idea.

WCF services are used to give a plat form independent support for various task. If you want to provide a service which can be access form any plat form and from any where you can create a web service that will provide you the ease of access and flexibility with a secure option.

Hi RajaLingam, WCF is a Service Oriented Application. We will write methods in WCF, we can use that service from any of our applications. We can have reusability and security for Code, as client application can only call the methods of Service. Ex: If you want to update any data base things, create wcf service which contains method for updating the database. call the update method from client application with parameters..

WCF is a Service Oriented Application and whenever you want same application access from different protocol like TCP/IP, HTTP, etc. use WCF service. Only thing is need to added each protocol endpoint in web.config no need to change coding inside it that is the main advantage of WCF service. Regards N.Ravindran Your Hard work never fails

Hi, According to my experience i have used the WCF services for making the distributed environment. In our case we placed the wcf services on one server and other business entities on another server. So all the DB calls are happened through the WCF. Regards, Rajan Patekar
