• Part 1: Introduction to Jersey -- a Standard, Open Source REST Implementation by Julien Dubois   - [Clicks: 24]
  This article is part 1 of a four-part series. It briefly introduces basic Representational State Transfer (REST) principles, and then quickly leaves theory in order to build a real-life sample application. We will use the new Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) 6 standard to create a classical JavaServer Faces application, and we will study why this application does not follow the REST principles. Using NetBeans, we will then add a second, Jersey-based view on top of our application, which will run in parallel with the JavaServer Faces front end. We will then compare both approaches to determine their pros and cons.

• REST, Web services, REST-ful services by Vedesh Dambal   - [Clicks: 26]
  REST-based Web services are increasingly being preferred for integration with backend enterprise services compared to SOAP due to their simplicity. This article proposes a simple extensible framework for exposing Java business services as REST-like services. It also helps to describe the design in detail and explores various extensibility approaches.

• Use Apache Wink with the Jackson JSON processor by Nick Maynard   - [Clicks: 26]
  Apache Wink is fast becoming one of the de facto implementations of the JAX-RS 1.0 specification. The providers included with the standard Apache Wink distribution for JSON marshalling and unmarshalling, such as JSON.org and Jettison, have some problems with array representation and limited return types. Coding JAX-RS services and their client Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (Ajax) applications can be difficult. In this article, learn a method for configuring an existing Apache Wink-enabled Web application to use the Jackson JSON provider to solve some of the problems. An example, with sample code for a simple Jackson-enabled JAX-RS Web service, illustrates the advantages of this provider.

• REST and SOAP: When Should I Use Each (or Both) ? by Mike Rozlog   - [Clicks: 34]
  Web developers today have a myriad of technologies they can choose from; for example, the two approaches for interfacing to the web with web services, namely SOAP and REST. Both approaches work, both have advantages and disadvantages to interfacing to web services, but it is up to the web developer to make the decision of which approach may be best for each particular case.

• InfoQ Explores: REST by InfoQ.com   - [Clicks: 15]
  This is the first edition of what is expected to become a recurring series on InfoQ. The idea behind this minibook is that a number of InfoQ articles and interviews which deal with a particular topic (in this case, REpresentational State Transfer, or REST) are combined together to provide a detailed exploration suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners.

• Create RESTful Web services with Java technology by Dustin Amrhein, Nick Gallardo   - [Clicks: 47]
  JAX-RS (JSR-311) is a Java API that enables quick and easy development of Java RESTful services. The API provides an annotation-based model for describing distributed resources. Annotations are used to provide resource location, resource representation, and a pluggable data binding architecture. In this article, learn how you can use JAX-RS to realize the potential of a RESTful services architecture in a Java EE environment.
