In terms of WCF, What is binding?
A binding defines how an endpoint communicates to the world. It is constructed of a set of components called binding elements that “stack” one on top of the other to create the communication infrastructure. At the very least, a binding defines the transport (such as HTTP or TCP) and the encoding being used (such as text or binary). A binding can contain binding elements that specify details like the security mechanisms used to secure messages, or the message pattern used by an endpoint.
