Usage of Threading in .Net 4.0 with WCF

Hello,

In our Web Application, We are using .Net Framework 4.0 with WCF Services.

We have a WCF Service with some DB operations after which

it generates a Report (Report Generation takes time).

Here user does not need to wait until the report gets generated and hence we have thought

of implementing Threading ( using System.Threading.Thread class and call this ReportGeneration in a new

Thread from the main thread immediately after DB operations are over).

Is it suggested to go ahead with Normal Threading or do we have a better approach ?

(Note :- We use .Net Framework 4.0 with WCF Services and WCF Service settings being set as InstanceContextMode = PerCall and ConcurrencyMode set to Single )

Please advise.

Well one approach would be to start the Operation as Async operation(probably async method to fetch data , and once done the same method will prepare the chart) and as it is async method, your app need not to wait until it finishes.

Considerable option with above approach would be running this on seperate Task.
