Hi everybody,

Greetings for the day!

I'm assigned to an ASP.NET MVC 4 project in which I need to method running in background that will keep checking and doing some manipulation in database.

Please suggest a way to achieve this purpose. Should I create a Windows Service or is there any way to incorporate this functionality from within the ASP.NET MVC4 project..

Thanks in Advance,
Sunny K

I believe window service is designed for this kind of requirements, where as MVC application is designed for web based user interaction.
So in opinion window service is best in this case.

Yes to Mr. Bailwal. Alternatively, you can have a singleton class that run on a thread.
