Remoting is a technology based on communication between one or more different application domains in a distributed environment. It means this enables objects residing on the same domain or computer, else spread among different domains or computers worldwide, to be accessible by each other and they can communicate and transfer data among each other. Normally, this follows the client server architecture of a centralized server application and its multiple client applications.

.NET Remoting without using IIS Server

As you know, we can implement remote server and client objects in different type of applications. For example, Console application, Windows Form based application, and Windows Services. In this case, we need to implement security options, authentication and authorization in the application.

.NET Remoting using IIS Server

To implement the remote client object in ASP.NET web application we have to setup the remote server object in the IIS Server. In this case, we do not need to implement security options, authentication and authorization, since the application would be able to use security features provided by IIS as these would be hosted in the IIS.

Which one to use, when and why?

We should go for IIS hosted remoting if we require one or more points among the following:

·         We want to use the remote server object to be accessible by web client applications (ASP.NET clients).

·         If webservice has slow performance on processing large or complex data.

·         We do not want to bother about implementing security, authentication or authorization in the code.

·         IIS setting at server are more scalable than stand alone application and have proxy backup servers.
