Yesterday I went to a reading about RESTful WebServices. The lecturer Stefan Tilkov talked about REpresentational State Transfer and compared the technology with SOAP. I just know the basics of SOAP and therefore I haven’t a complete overview to compare the technologies. But in my opinion REST is a quite interesting approach for distributed software and it is also quite easy to understand. Caused by the one-sided kind of reading (REST) I am interested in arguments for SOAP respectively against REST.
Nevertheless I enjoyed the reading and please check out the slides and the example project from Stefan Tilkov.
P.S. If you’re trying REST you can use JERSEY as client API.
