October 2007 Meeting - REST Web Services with Spring MVC
TITLE:
REST Web Services with Spring MVC
ABSTRACT:
At least one developer has turned away from SOAP Web Services to REST Web Services because REST is easier to understand and has a shorter time to productivity. REST is lightweight enough that it can still be done by hand (without IDE wizards). REST models itself after the web and runs on the HTTP Protocol. Knowledge about scaling, caching, and securing web pages can be applied to REST Web Service URLs. This presentation will demonstrate one approach to provide REST Web Services using the following enabling technologies:
- Java 6
- Spring Framework 2.1
- from carbonfive
- XStream
- HibernateProxyConverter and HibernateMapper
- XML
- Hibernate 3
- HSQLDB 1.8.0
- Maven 2
- Tomcat 6
