Compare Web API and WCF?
WCF offers request-reply, one-way, or duplex while Web API is by default request-reply only. WCF is used for developing SOAP-based services whereas Web API is used for both SOAP-based and RESTful services. WCF does not offer any support for MVC features whereas Web API supports MVC features. WCF supports HTTP, UDP, and custom transport protocol whereas Web API supports only HTTP protocol. WCF offers Text, MTOM, and Binary Encoding support whereas Web API supports the UTF-8 encoding format. WCF supports message queues, message security, duplex communication, transaction whereas Web API doesn’t support. WCF stands for Windows Communication Foundation whereas API stands for Application Program Interface.
