认识REST

1.之前多次接触过REST,这回要系统的认识他,且以jaxrs作为学习的对象

2.什么是REST?

REST stands for REpresentational State Transfer. REST is web standards based architecture and uses HTTP Protocol for data communication. It revolves around resource where every component is a resource and a resource is accessed by a common interface using
HTTP standard methods. REST was first introduced by Roy Fielding in 2000.

简单的说REST是一个基于HTTP的状态转移数据交互的标准,他在2000被提出来

3.与平常的web的区别

平常的web是基于浏览器作为展示平台的,REST不同,他主要用于不同平台之间的交互,交互方式是基于XML,TEXT,或者是JSON,不过以目前而言,最流行是JSON的方式

4.除了不直接以html作为展示外,他使用的http方式基本无异
