web service and Remoting

Hi

Can someone explain me the difference between webservice and remoting (in .net technology)?

I will prefer some explanation here instead of refering to any article......

both web services and remoting aim to do the same thing, which is to expose some business functionality across application domains/networks/computers etc

Web services advantages are it can work over any network as it uses HTTP, SOAP/XML so it does not matter if the target is running java or .NET because at the end of the day the request and response are serialised into XML and send over HTTP/SOAP.

.NET remoting's advantages are it is much faster then web services because you can use binary serialisation over TCP communication channel. However the pitfalls are remoting in .NET must have both parties running .NET.

Web Service question

Some developers say Web Services are slow. Is Remoting any faster? Or what's better than them? Please explain pros and cons on each one of them. Thanks.

thuhue, you seem to ask a lot of these kinds of questions. Therehave been a lot of articles and blog posts on this topic. Youmight consider using Google or visiting the MSDN library and doing somereading so that you have gained this background information foryourself.

Web Services - Remoting and Asynchronous in Webmatrix?

Hi, I need to build an E-Commerce shopping cart which will be Asynchronous ... so I guess I will need Remoting and Asynchronous methods from web services ... my question is ... is that a MUST that I have to use Visual Studio.NET? Can I just use webmatrix?You can use Notepad if you like, as long as you do it right. If you need to create Assemblies, all the command line tools you need are free, and comes with the .Net SDK.

But then again, VS.Net will save you hours (days) of unnecessary work. You may find it expensive, but it's worth every penny.
Hi, I do have a copy of VS.NET CDs from my friend ... but, I can't even get through step 1 ... it said I dun have several software or something ... it's Enterprise version ... but I only need to use my IP address as a server ... so I selected Remote server and follow the lnk to how to setup a remote server ... but doesn't work ... still not allowed me to go on to steps 2, 3, etc. What should I do???
VS.Net consists of several CDs. The first you are required to run is Component Update. If you don't have this or any of the other CDs of, you cannot install VS.Net.

"Hi, I do have a copy of VS.NET CDs from my friend"

Do you own a license for this copy of VS.Net?
hello .. I have the original CD with me ... but its' my friend's ... does it make it diff that I can't get through step 1?
Having the original, as opposed to a copy I shouldn't imagine will make a difference, but you'll still need to license it. If you've already got a license, then I beleive you can get new media from MS, for a small fee (That way you're garaunteed to get a complete set of disks).

Alternatively, you could trySharpDevelop. It's a bit simpler than VS, but still very similar in look and feel, still does everything you're likely to need to do, and more importantly, it's free.

Web Services vs .NET Remoting over HTTP with SOAP

What are the differences between using web services and using .NET
remoting with http transport and soap encoding ?
When dealing with .net to .net communications, particular when the
same company is responsible for both sides of the app (client and
server), what are advantages/divantages of each?
Thanks,
Sam

Web services are meant to be platform-neutral. That means least common
denominator.
With .NET remoting, you can use .NET-specific features like properties,
indexers, and even non-default constructors.
