A short but interesting post about the difference between being a .NET developer and Windows one popped up on Don Box's NEW blog. Here's a quote:
.NET is a technology from Microsoft that combines XML Web Services (for remote integration) and the CLR (for local integration and execution). The CLR is an implementation of the ECMA CLI spec that is tightly integrated with Windows.
The interesting thing to me is that the question of how to do remote integration seems to be pretty much answered here once and for all. That is, if anyone is still wondering about whether to use Web Services vs. Remoting...
