WCF provides a unified programming model for building service-oriented applications. It enables developers to build secure, reliable, and transacted solutions that integrate across platforms and interoperate with existing investments. WCF implements SOAP-based web services as its fundamental communication mechanism and supports WS-* standards for security, reliability, transactions, and metadata exchange. Developers can define services using contracts, expose endpoints using addresses and bindings, and apply behaviors to customize runtime properties.
Overview of Microsoft WCF communication technology (Windows Communication Foundation).
WCF is a unified communication framework for distributed .Net applications.
WCF defines a common programming model and unified API for clients and services to send messages between each other.
WCF is the current and future standard for distributed .Net applications.
One of WCFs core concept is ABC which stands for Address, Binding and Contract.
The address defines a service's location. The binding defines how the service can be accessed and the contract defines the service interface.
This common model allows a uniform programming model for distributed applications not only based on web services, but also on message based transports like MSMQ.

SOAP is a simple and flexible messaging framework for transferring information specified in the form of an XML infoset between an initial SOAP sender and ultimate SOAP receiver.

Web API or WCF - An Architectural ComparisonAdnan Masood
ASP.NET Web API is a framework that makes it easy to build HTTP services that reach a broad range of clients, including browsers and mobile devices. The new ASP.NET Web API is a continuation of the previous WCF Web API projection. WCF was originally created to enable SOAP-based services and other related bindings. However, for simpler RESTful or RPCish services (think clients like jQuery) ASP.NET Web API is a good choice.
In this meeting we discussed what do you need to understand as an architect to implement your service oriented architecture using WCF or ASP.NET web API. With code samples, we will elaborate on WCF Web API’s transition to ASP.NET Web API and respective constructs such as Service vs. Web API controller, Operation vs. Action, URI templates vs ASP.NET Routing, Message handlers, Formatters and Operation handlers vs Filters, model binders. WebApi offers support for modern HTTP programming model with full support for ASP.NET Routing, content negotiation and custom formatters, model binding and validation, filters, query composition, is easy to unit test and offers improved Inversion of Control (IoC) via DependencyResolver.
You will walk away with a sample set of services that run on Silverlight, Windows Forms, WPF, Windows Phone and ASP.NET.

ADO.NET Fundamentals using Connected Model and Disconnected Models
This PPT explains about the various ways to manage the state of an asp.net web application. This PPT is for complete beginners and intermediate developers who want to know few things about Asp.net State Management. Here I have explained in brief about the various techniques we use to manage the state of our application.
Full credit to Microsoft but i have modified and updated the presentation to increase readability and simplicity. Hope you will enjoy knowing about Session Mgmt.
Complete Architecture and Development Guide To Windows Communication Foundati...Abdul Khan
This is Complete Architecture and Development Guide To Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) for building service-oriented applications. It enables architect to quickly in understand WCF and developers to build secure, reliable, transacted solutions that integrate across platforms and interoperate with existing investments.
A Web service (WS*-) is a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine
interaction over a network (WSDL) i.e between a client and a service. It has an interface described in a
machine-processable format . Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its
description using SOAP messages which is a protocol define by world wide web consortium, typically
conveyed using HTTP with an XML serialization in conjunction with other Web-related standards. Windows
Communication Foundation (WCF) is a framework for building service-oriented applications. Using WCF,
you can send data as asynchronous messages from one service endpoint to another. A service endpoint can
be part of a continuously available service hosted by IIS, or it can be a service hosted in an application like
an .exe file. An endpoint can be a client of a service that requests data from a service endpoint. The messages
can be as simple as a single character or word sent as XML document, or as complex as a stream of binary
data. In this paper ,We gave the Adavantages that are Available by using wcf ,instead of webservices and
other.

10. SOA Implementation in WCF Boundaries are Explicit Services are autonomous Share schema & contract, not class Compatibility based on policy Developers opt-in to consuming, exposing, and defining public-facing service façade. Services and consumers are independently versioned, deployed, operated, and secured . Data never includes behavior; Objects with data and behavior are a local phenomenon. Capabilities and requirements represented by a unique public name; Used to establish service suitability.
