Well, in my opinion very few of the typical 'Programmable Web' REST interfaces (see for instance Flickr or Google) actually support REST, but only what Anne calls POX over HTTP. To me (and I know that most will disagree) the REST architecure is a little bit unpractical for many applications (see e.g. "statelessness"), but the term REST is incredibly popular :) That leads to a lot of frameworks and interfaces pretend to be "RESTful", while they actually are not. So at least you would be in good company ...

Thanks for the insight then why does Axis claim that we have suport for REST style web services woul'nt it be a wrong thing to do when as ISV we adopt Axis2 and state this to our customers that our web services support both kind of interfaces. Vibhor

Subject: Re: calling web service using REST



I'd just like to point out again that what you're describing here is
not REST. It's POX over HTTP, but it's not REST. I've written more
about this in my blog.
