    Web Service Vs. Normal Component.

    Hi,

    I am kinda confused exactly when to use WebService and When to use Normal Component ?? You can almost always make all Business Components as a WebService whether needed or not. So is there a drawback in doing so ?? I mean do we lose some performance or something in making a Component (which can be a normal component) a Web Service ?? Or the other way around ??

    Generally speaking, web services have an associated performace penalty. But they offer easy interoperability with third-party systems and frameworks other than .Net.

    What's nice about using web services is, you can access all your components through one reference. Also, it makes migrating new changes to the components alot easier, as you can make changes to the production components the web service calls.
