Here we going to discuss about how to consuming the WCF service in MVC. For creating WCF refer here
Step 1:
Create a new project and add Service References by right click the project as show below
and in Add Service Reference wizard, enter the address of the service and click ok button to check the availability of the service method. we can also change the namespace to consumed service. Finally click ok to add the service reference to our application
Step 2:
Check whether service added correctly as like below screen by double click the service name to open the object browser window (check with web config file for reference)
If service name space is not added correctly in the above screen then right click the the service and choose ‘Configure Service Reference’, in that wizard unchecked the ‘Reuse types in referenced assemblies’ options and click OK ( it will update in webconfig also )
Step 3:
Create Controller to implement the service.

Step 4:

Hi ,
While calling WCF service from MVC application its taking long time. very slow
Is that any chances to reduce the time and increase the performance. minimum its taking 45 seconds to load the application.
