You can use whichever data technology you want. However, up to Entity Framework 4 in .NET 4 (currently in Release Candidate status), it is recommended not to return an Entity Framework entity or a LINQ to SQL class from a web service. Both technologies unfortunately leak their implementation over the wire – the client-side proxy classes would have client-side classes corresponding to the base classes used by the data framework.
Instead, use a Data Transfer Object, which is an object that has nothing but properties that correspond one-to-one with the properties of the data you want transferred.
