Sorry for my ignorance: I've been writing WCF services for a long time...but never for SP. Is there a specific "SP WCF" service, or is it just a WCF service that SP calls?ImmortalStrawberry– ImmortalStrawberry2012-10-10 04:43:23 +00:00Commented Oct 10, 2012 at 4:43

1No it is not specific to SP it just a normal WCF service. If you notice it has access to the SharePoint Server OM. What I did was make functions that returned data from the Server OM and also my SQL database but it was all hosted within SharePoint. The first link will at least get your running your service from within sharepoint. You could do it outside Sharepoint and configure IIS yourself and just call it directyl. I prefer sp since you can customize the service.Joseph D Surgeon– Joseph D Surgeon2012-10-10 13:18:50 +00:00Commented Oct 10, 2012 at 13:18

You could use BCS if you are going to return small records sets but for multiple simultaneous calls I wouldn't use the performance is horrible.Joseph D Surgeon– Joseph D Surgeon2012-10-10 13:22:35 +00:00Commented Oct 10, 2012 at 13:22

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. sharepoint-online), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
