Make your WCF Service async

Oh my: WCF??? This might be the elephant in the room: I wouldn’t use WCF for new stuff anymore, but to keep some “legacy” stuff working it might be a good idea to modernize those services as well.

Be afraid of varchar(max) with async EF or ADO.NET

Last month we had changed our WCF APIs to async implementations, because we wanted all those glorious scalability improvements in our codebase.
