.NET Remoting vs .NET Web Services

by bryan.weiss . Updated 22 years, 7 months ago

Ok… I’ve successfully built and tested .NET Web Services, and think I have a pretty good handle on them. Now I am grappling with .NET Remoting, a vastly more complex topic, and having a little trouble understanding how the end result is differentfrom Web Services (and what the payoff is for all of the extra work).

In other words, while .NET Remoting is vastly less complicated than what one had to go through in the past in order to achieve inter-application-domain communications… with the advent of .NET XML Web Services (very cool, very simple to develop and implement), why do I need .NET Remoting?

If the answer to this question is obvious, please forgive my ignorance… I would welcome a bit of enlightenment.
