RESTful Web Services

Representational State Transfer (RESTful) is an architectural style that structures web services around standardised constraints for scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. It abstracts component implementation details, focusing instead on how elements interact and process data within distributed systems.

RESTful APIs use lightweight formats like JSON, XML, HTML, or Plain Text, making them fast, adaptable, and widely used. Leveraging the HTTP protocol, REST is the dominant API format powering modern web applications.

REST and HTTP: Understanding the Difference

While REST and HTTP are closely related, they are not the same.

  • REST is an architectural style that defines principles for designing stateless, scalable web services using a uniform interface.
  • HTTP is a protocol that facilitates communication between clients and servers, commonly used to implement RESTful APIs.

Although REST is protocol-agnostic, HTTP provides the foundation for REST’s methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) and status codes. REST focuses on resource representation, while HTTP defines how information is transmitted.

Methodologies & Work Planning

For long-term software development, structured methodologies ensure efficient project planning and execution. Agile development promotes adaptive planning, early delivery, and continuous improvement, allowing flexibility in evolving business needs.

A cross-functional team—professionals with diverse expertise—collaborates to achieve common goals. Beyond technical aspects, effective project management requires practical experience, clear communication, and a deep understanding of business objectives to align IT solutions with real-world needs.
