And from a developer persepctive, the Microsoft stack wasn't very good anyways. WCF stands for Windows Configuration Fuckup.

  WCF is a mess and poorly documented. I have several significant implementations of WCF I support now and I really often wonder WTF Microsoft was thinking.

    It was a peak of the architecture astronaut era unfortunately.

    I once spent a day or two looking at WCF in Reflector. Interestingly, while the API makes it look like a tiered, flexible architecture it is not. Instead, at the bottom (!) layer you basically have case distinctions, depending on the layers that were configured on top.

    Can implement any communication protocol as long as it's SOAP.
