What is the relationship between WCF, Rest and SOAP?

Question

What is the relationship between WCF and REST&SOAP? Is WCF based on one of those technologies (REST or SOAP) or it is a separate technology?

Answer 1

WCF isn't automatically REST or SOAP, but you can make it that way. What you need here is a tutorial:

WCF

REST
