Socket vs Wcf communication

Question

Did Wcf replace socket? for client server application i need that client send some messages to server and the server can do the same thing without waiting request from any client. So can i do this or wcf can only expose many services that client need and the communication can't be interactif and bidirectionnal? thanks

Answer 1

Do you want the connection to be persistant? If so then this doesn't sound like a good case for WCF. Perhaps take a look at something like ZeroMQ instead.
