We have a server application that has one module installed on a separate server, and want to use WCF for the two modules to communicate with each other. I've narrowed it down to hosting the WCF either in IIS7/WAS or in WAS without IIS. The main purpose of the primary application is actually to serve as a tcp/ip sockets based server that processes some data that comes in. Would IIS7 or WAS be best for this type of project?
If we did go with WAS, would it makes sense to build a console app to host in WAS?
