<p>A new small blog post where I sticked informations or links about <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer">Rest</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer">Restful</a> :a style of architecture for distributed softwares. This post will be updated each time I have new links.</p> <p>Restful is stateless. The main goals of Restful architecture are scalability, availability and agnotiscs technologies between software (via an common interface). A new Internet draft is out, it names <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-williams-http-rest-auth-00">RESTful Authentication Pattern</a> and will help to design your architecture.</p> <p>If you will deploy this type of architecture, you can read this slideshare which give <a href="http://blog.apigee.com/detail/slides_for_restful_api_design_second_edition_webinar/">best practices to design API</a> (a webinar is available too). To design a Restful architecture, you need to <a href="http://redrata.com/restful-uri-design/">design your URI</a>. There is another good document made by <a href="http://www.apigee.com">Apigee</a> : <a href="http://info.apigee.com/Portals/62317/docs/web%20api.pdf">Web API Design</a> - Crafting interfaces that Developers love [PDF file]</p> <p>Here is some examples of API architectures:</p> <ul> <li><span style="line-height: 16px;"><a href="http://techblog.netflix.com/2013/01/optimizing-netflix-api.html">Optimizing the Netflix API</a><br> </span></li> </ul> <p>To conclude, there is a tool to assist you on your development : <a href="http://code.google.com/p/rest-client/">Rest-client</a>. It's a Java app (so cross-platform) to test your Restful webservices.</p>
