JAX-RS: The Java API for RESTful Web Services
TS-5425


Presenter: Marc Hadley, Sun Microsystems, Inc.; Paul Sandoz, Sun Microsystems, Inc.


Lightweight RESTful approaches have emerged as a popular alternative to SOAP-based technologies for deployment of services on the Internet. However, development of such services with the Java platform is significantly more complex than development of SOAP-based services, due to the low-level nature of the current platform APIs.

The goal of the Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) is to provide a high-level declarative programming model for such services that is easy to use and encourages development according to REST tenets. Services built with this API are deployable with a variety of Web container technologies and benefit from built-in support for best-practice HTTP usage patterns and conventions.

This session provides a brief REST primer, followed by an overview of the JAX-RS API that leads developers through the design process for a sample RESTful service. The API discussion is illustrated with live code demonstrations.
