[eclipse-incubator-e4-dev] [resources] REST (Representational State Tran

[Michael Scharf <Michael.Scharf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the call today some asked for some links to an introduction
to REST. Wikipedia is a good starting point:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer

Some important attributes of the RESTful approach is:
    * Client-server
    * Stateless
    * Cacheable
    * Layered

Here is a podcast (~1h) introducing the REST concepts (and some links):
