REST in Practice - Full Day Workshop on Web-based Distributed Systems
The Web is fast becoming a serious competitor to traditional enterprise architecture approaches. This full day workshop will provide an introduction to RESTful Web Service techniques, both from a theoretical and practical perspectives.
This full day workshop is broken down as follows:
- Introduction and Motivation
- The Web Architecture
- Simple Web Integration including POX and URI tunnelling
- CRUD Services using URI templates and HTTP
- Semantics using Microformats and RDF
- Hypermedia and the REST architectural style
- Scalability and how a text-based client-server polling protocol outperforms everything else!
- ATOM and ATOMPub for event-driven and pub/sub applications
- Security
- Conclusions and further thoughts
Participants should be comfortable with distributed computing concepts, but won't need any particular integration or middleware experience
