Explain the basic difference between WCF and ASMX Web Services?..

Answer / Chetan Prakash

The main difference between WCF and ASMX web services is that WCF provides a unified programming model for building service-oriented applications, whereas ASMX web services are based on SOAP and use .NET Remoting under the hood. WCF supports multiple protocols (SOAP, REST, TCP, etc.) and binding styles (document, RPC, message), while ASMX only supports SOAP and RPC.
