WCF interview questions: - How does WCF differ from Web services?

• WCF services can be hosted in multiple protocols like http, TCP etc. Web services can only be hosted on Http protocol.

• WCF has COM+ so you can call two different WCF services in a transaction, we can not call two different web services in one transaction.

• WCF integrates with MSMQ, for web services we will need to write code.
