Questions tagged [remoting]

.NET Remoting is a Microsoft application programming interface (API) for interprocess communication released in 2002 with the 1.0 version of .NET framework.

.NET remoting enables you to build widely distributed applications easily, whether the application components are all on one computer or spread out across the entire world. You can build client applications that use objects in other processes on the same computer or on any other computer that is reachable over its network. You can also use .NET remoting to communicate with other application domains in the same process.

Note: As of version 3 of the .NET framework, remoting is considered a legacy technology that is retained for backward compatibility with existing applications and is not recommended for new development. Instead of remoting, it is now recommended to develop distributed applications using the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF).
