Can you describe where you want to persist things if not the disk or DB? And
what exactly does your service need to do?

I agree that a Windows service is a better option for 24/7 if the same
process must stay running - but if the service is intended for comms (as
your WCF comments imply), then note that hosting WCF in a Windows service is
fairly simple.

Re http, again WCF offers various transports and protocols - http is one of
them, but others are available simply by changing the configuration.
