About This Session
RESTful API’s can be a powerful way to expose data and services to a broad range of platforms, but just what does it mean to be RESTful? What’s the rest of the story on why REST is an important tool for developers building services in today’s world? This talk introduces you to the REST architectural style and looks at what it means to be a truly RESTful service. I’ll show you concrete examples of using the ASP.NET Web API framework to create simple RESTful services quickly, as well ways to address issues that, while not specifically addressed by REST, are real-world problems that you will encounter when building RESTful services.
