What is the latest recommended method for having multiple client desktop application pass information to a server application located across the internet?
I am using c# and Vis studio 2008, and not sure if SOAP is appropriate or maybe SOAP has been superseded by WCF.
Or maybe there are other methods that are more suitable.
I would look at WCF more closely it is based on SOAP and may be what you are looking for by the sounds of it.
WCF is the "latest and greatest" but tou can also take a look at remoting. I am in the middle of a project with similar requirements and WCF scared me back in to remoting. I know microsoft is promoting WCF but I just haven't been able to find enough resources and support with the designer for all of the decorating WCF requires.
