How to develop an API based on IIS?

Question

API

I am slowly thinking about my diploma, at the core I want to make an information system and first implement an API for obtaining data from the database. Response format as JSON. Requests are parameterized. Where can this issue be considered and where to start, so that the system is initially scalable, and the advantages and benefits of development are clearly shown. I'm just running a server on Linux with similar capabilities in parallel, I want to consider the advantages of developing on both systems.

Answer 1

WebAPI with MVC paradigm, out of the box: JSON/XML, the ability to redefine almost all parts of the response generation mechanism.
On the other hand, you can try WCF.
