Hi,

1. What makes RIA and WCF services more robust and secure?

2. Why REST services are not robust even if they support ssl, authorization/authentication.

3. With my initial idea, I thought I just need to project in VS 1. For ASP.NET web app 2.SL Client

4. If I take WCF appraoch I need 4 projects 1.WCF 2.SL Client 3.SL Client Web (to host sl client) 4.ASP.NET web app(Razor) for html client.

I feel the WCF approah needs more effort and less efficient as it need SOAP stuff on the communication stack.
