I’ve asked several questions on Silverlight the last day or two (I have no experience with it), and I’ve had some high-level questions answered. I have another high-level question. How is N-Tier development done with Silverlight? What I am considering is a browser based UI and then a c# back-end containing all the business logic and database code. How would a Silverlight client application communicate with such a back-end sitting on another server? Would it be done via Web service calls, WCF or something else? What is standard practice?

Thanks!

    For the projects I’ve worked on. Typical practice is Silverlight providing a client and then communicating back to the back-end via WCF services.

    The business logic is then spread/duplicated across the client and the backend.
