To expand on this. As I understand Microsoft has started to create a new version of WCF for .NET core (or 5 as it is called now). I should a multi-year development project to do this, because it can no longer be "Windows" Communication Foundation since it also must work on Linux.
They same goes for EWT tracing which is the logging mechanism you can use. That also has to be cross platform.
So for some years to come, I (on some projects) are "stuck" with .NET 4.X until WCF and EWT has been re-architectured.

- ToFab123 7y agoSince much of the banking world is heavy users of WCF, Microsoft has no other option that to implement WCF in. Net 5 unless they want to loose the banking industry. I did come across a post from one of the WCF products managers who said that they are working on a cross platform solution but it will take some (much) time before that has been completed. Cannot find this post, but I consider it safe to say that WCF for .net 5 is coming and that I am stuck util it does as there really is no alternative to using WCF
