I would like to know what developers that use Android on a daily basis, use as their services layer (between app and production database)
In the Microsoft space, there is WCF.
What can the Android Developers recommend?

A key point of having a service over http is to abstract away how the service is built. So you should not be worried about it.
Having said that, in smartphones, it is advisable to build and consume light weight REST based services over JSON instead of heavy SOAP and XML based services. How you implement the REST service is actually immaterial.
