Recently I had to check out SOAP/HTTP and SOAP/TCP as solutions to a WCF service. I know SOAP/TCP was not there in previous WCF versions. However, after analyzing WCF 4.0, I came to know that it is still not there but can be implemented only thru custom binding.
Tabulated below are some key differentiators on SOAP/HTTP vs SOAP/TCP
SOAP/HTTP
|
SOAP/TCP
|
Not connection-based
|
Connection-based
|
Stateless
|
Stateful
|
Request-Response delivery mechanism
|
Supports fast infoset
|
Need to use WSReliableMessaging for reliable data delivery
|
Reliable data delivery,
|
Provides duplex communication
| |
Slowest of the three
|
Fastest of the three, since only the new/changed data packets are transmitted
|
OOTB WCF binding available
|
Custom binding to be created, third-party component available
|
