Answer» Every RESTful web service has the following features: - The service is based on the CLIENT-Server model.
- The service uses HTTP Protocol for fetching data/resources, query execution, or any other functions.
- The medium of communication between the client and server is called “Messaging”.
- Resources are accessible to the service by means of URIs.
- It follows the statelessness CONCEPT where the client request and response are not dependent on others and thereby provides TOTAL assurance of GETTING the required data.
- These SERVICES also use the concept of caching to minimize the server calls for the same type of repeated requests.
- These services can also use SOAP services as implementation protocol to REST architectural pattern.
