Implementing WCF for SharePoint  
Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is the new way of implementing SOA and I was thinking about using it for the SharePoint. As we all know, SharePoint has its own set of Web Services which are based on the original approach to SOA and with the help of WCF we can take SharePoint to the next level.

Recently, I was tasked with updating SharePoint libraries with the external documents. However, there is no web service now that can do it. As a result, I decided to use WCF and in the process wanted to convert all of the existing WebService to WCF.

I was browsing several sites on the internet and found several implementations of WCF for the SharePoint but mostly on the site level and not on the server level. In my case, I need to have WCF implemented for the admin operations with the SharePoint for the entire collection of sites, not just one site at a time.

Microsoft is coming up with the new SharePoint 2010 and I am hoping that they will utalize WCF instead of WebServices which will make it more up to day.
