Can you tell the disadvantages of RESTful web services?

Answer»

The disadvantages are:

  • As the services follow the idea of statelessness, it is not possible to maintain sessions. (Session SIMULATION responsibility lies on the client-side to pass the session id)
  • REST does not impose security restrictions inherently. It inherits the security measures of the PROTOCOLS implementing it. Hence, care MUST be chosen to IMPLEMENT security measures LIKE integrating SSL/TLS based authentications, etc.
