  2. Agenda • Introduction • Architectural Styles • Remote Procedure Call (RPC) • Serviced Oriented Architecture (SOA) • Representational State Transfer (REST) • Conclusion

  3. Web Services & Architectural Styles • What are Web Services? • Why are they important? • What are some examples? • Why are Architectural Styles important? • What criteria will be using to evaluate these styles?

  4. Remote Procedure Call (RPC) • RPC • Client invocation of a local representation of a remote method

  5. Remote Procedure Call (RPC) • Example Technologies • XML-RPC • RPC Style SOAP • Advantages • Simple • Disadvantages • Tightly Coupled • Not Easily Scalable

  6. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) • SOA Principles • Separation of concerns • Service Orientation • Loosely Coupled • Formal Contracts • Abstract Logic • Composable • Reusable • Autonomous • Stateless • Discoverable

  7. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) • SOA Workflow

  8. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) • Primary Technologies • Document-centric SOAP • WSDL • UDDI • Advantages • Extensible • Scalable • Disadvantages • Excessive Configuration • Reliance on Tools

  9. Representational State Transfer (REST) • REST Principles • Resource Oriented • Uniquely Addressable • Client-Server • Stateless • Cache • Uniform Interface • Layered System

  10. Representational State Transfer (REST) • REST Workflow

  11. Representational State Transfer (REST) • Example Framework • Restlet • Advantages • Extensible • Scalable • Content Types • Disadvantages • Data Size

  12. Conclusion • REST is the best overall architecture style • Not too complex • Extensible • Interoperable • Scalable • Challenges to Adoption • Benefits are not immediately recognizable • Maturity • Investment in SOA
