More REST topics popping up

29 April, 2007 (06:33) | .NET, Software Architecture

After Larry O’Brien declared his allegiance to REST, here are a couple more people who have solidly been in the SOAP world for the past few years but seem to have had various forms of epiphanies. Dino talks about the usage of REST in ASP.NET AJAX Extensions and Tim Ewald seems to have had some good results using REST as well. I don’t consider myself a qualified arbiter between both technologies since I haven’t built anything REST-ful as yet. I just see the increased discussion of it and think its very interesting. Of course the greater part of the RoR community is REST centric as well.

UPDATE: Tim Ewald clarified in a follow up post why REST is not the same as RPC.
