-----------------------------------
Summary: Map update to PUT and create to POST
Key: AMBARI-930
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-930
Project: Ambari
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: John Speidel
Changed the mapping for update and create.
Although the previous approach was corrrect technically I feel that it is
better to be simple for our case. The decision to use PUT or POST comes down
to idempotency of the operation since the HTTP 1.1 spec states that PUT is
always idempotent and POST has no such guarantees. This ties into caching and
performance but at the load that would be expected for an Ambari server, this
isn't really an issue. So I have now used a 1-1 mapping between crud
operations and http verb. This will be easier for the api developer to
determine which verb to use.
So to be explicit:
Create = POST
Update = PUT
