When we use web service and when we use Remoting?

Answer Posted / ankit dass

.NET remoting is specifically used when you are using only
Microsoft platform. Remoting cannot be used between .net
client and non .NET clients.
Web services though can be used for communication on
MIcrosoft technologies, but their main feature is Platform
Interoperability.
So if you are using client and server supporting .NET
framwork, iwould recommend to use .NET remoting because
you can customise it to great detail and also its faster.
If you are developing for cross platform technologies, you
cannot use .NET remoting. So the only option you have is ot
use web services
