About Nitin Kumar
I have discussed my earlier article about architectural consideration<<link>> to become a RESTful system on distributed environment that are usable my system/machines. This article we are going to discuss how to build web services based on REST architecture consideration. This tutorial explains how to develop RESTful web services in Java with the Tomcat 6, Eclipse and Jersey a JAX-RS (JSR 311) reference implementation.
In a nutshell a RESTful web service is a communication between machines using HTTP on REST principles which have following key points:
- Each resource represents unique URI to communicate over HTTP protocols
- Each resource operation supported by HTTP methods (POST, GET, PUT and DELETE)
- Request and Response supported by JSON, XML and various MIME type such as image, byte stream etc.
