WCF, both server and client is available in same location. Which binding to use.

Dear Kkaur,

1. NetNamedPipesBinding you would be use if your service will hosted on the same computer as the client.
2. NetNamedPipesBinding binding is used if you are using WCF-to-WCF communication between processes on the same machine.
3. NetNamedPipesBinding uses named pipe as transport for same machine communication using an efficient binary encoding method.

TCP binding
This binding is provided by the NetTcpBinding class. It uses TCP protocol for communication be-tween two machines with in intranet (means same network). It encodes the message in binary format. This is faster and more reliable binding as compared to the Http protocol bindings. It is only used when communication is WCF - to – WCF means both client and service should have WCF.

IPC binding
This binding is provided by the NetNamedPipeBinding class. It uses named pipe for Communication between two services on the same machine . This is the most secure and fastest binding among all the bindings.
