I have started using asp.net MVC and as traditional way I want to keep my data access layer in WCF service. How can I achieve that using asp.net MVC ?
Scenario
I started a test application in asp.net MVC which Displays, Inserts and Edit data. I successfully created that by adding 'ADO.Net Entity Data Model'.
So now if I wanted to move this dataaccess layer in WCF service, i.e. a WCF service with methods like GetData(), UpdateData(), CreateNewData(), how can i achieve that?

Short Answer:
You just need to move your dataaccess layer into a WCF service, expose it and then call it from your MVC application.
Long Answer:
1) I recommend going through Scott Guthrie's Nerd Dinner walkthrough to get a really good understanding of MVC basics.
2) The following blog goes through the process of writing a Layered ASP.NET MVC Applicaiton with a WCF Service (Parts III & IV specifically concentrate on WCF & MVC interaction):
I haven't read the linked arrticles in detail (just skimmed them) but they seem to give a decent overview of the process.
