Which are the RESTful web services?
RESTful web services are built to work best on the Web. In the REST architectural style, data and functionality are considered resources and are accessed using Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), typically links on the Web. The resources are acted upon by using a set of simple, well-defined operations.
What are the advantages of RESTful web services?
