Singleton WebService (ASMX, not WCF)

Is there a way to define an C# ASMX WebService as singleton? Maybe in the Web.config file? Currently I'm not using WCF.

Thanks in advance

    [WebService(Namespace = "http://www.mydomain.eu/")]
    [WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
    [System.ComponentModel.ToolboxItem(false)]
    public class MyService : System.Web.Services.WebService
    {
        ...
    }

You can always make the main data object also static and it will be shared through all the worker instances.

You can hide your web service behind a facade that is a singleton:

public static class ServiceFacade
{
    public static void ServiceOperation()
    {
        using (var service = new MyService())
        {
            service.Operation();
        }
    }
}

You can't create Singleton web service, because web service runs on IIS and is treated as web app and is maintained as such. Each client will share single application instance, but each of them will have own Request, Response, Session etc.
