WCF web service watching other WCF web services

Question

I would like to have a Traffic COP or Controller WCF Web Service that doesn't do anything with data but instead gives orders to another WCF Web Service to do so.

Could someone give me an example of how this might be able to be done. It would be preferable that I was not getting into any APM stuff. Instead just an observer who later gets to spin another one way contract to a WCF Web Service when it needs to after it sees that there are no more other WCF Web Services with the same meta data in memory or processing currently.

If this is impossible please say so. Unless you know a small example of how it is done. Maybe a pointer where somebody has already covered the topic?

Thanks apolfj

Answer 1

I don't really understand your question, but maybe this will help:

• MSE is a "service virtualization" approach
• Stocktrader has a WCF load balancer included in it.

Maybe one of them will fit your needs.
