Introducing Windows Communication Foundation

This part of the book introduces web service standards and fundamental components of Service-Oriented Architecture. We will also discuss how these principles are illustrated in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). Once you have an understanding of some of these concepts, including the business and technological factors, you can appreciate the simplicity and flexibility of WCF. The first chapter will cover the services standards. Then we will introduce WCF in Chapter 2. This is followed by a discussion of the WCF programming model in Chapter 3.
