Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Unleashed

This chapter provided you with a basic introduction to the world of distributed applications using remoting. Remoting allows developers to create applications that can consume objects remotely without having to do extra work to make the same code work over HTTP, TCP, and so on. Using the channels available within the remoting infrastructure, applications can expose objects to clients that could be on the same machine or halfway across the world, providing a framework to create some of the most powerful distributed applications available today.
