I can’t find a duplicate for this question, but I honestly hope I’m not the first to ask.

I have a WCF service that is sitting inside my LAN. For .NET clients on my lan, NetTcpBinding is the appropriate binding. However, one of my clients is a PHP web application. Is there any way to do this?

Update: I am well aware I can have multiple endpoints. I want to know if I can enjoy the speed, reduced network traffic and lack of latency of nettcp compared to wshttp from a php app.

It happens to be a PHP app running on windows so COM interop or .NET Interop would work. I’m wondering if there is a “native” solution, such a a pecl module or pear library.

    NetTcpBinding is intended “for WCF-to-WCF communication” only. (MSDN)

    This binding uses a proprietary protocol to communicate, and it is not meant to be interoperable since it is optimized for WCF-to-WCF.

    You could have different endpoints for your WCF service. Why don’t you expose another endpoint with a binding that could be consumed easily from your php application? (like BasicHttpBinding or WebHttpBinding)
