Hi Antonio, Thanks for your interest and patience. If you have a look at the list archives you can see how fast and well the community replies to questions. Please remember that people reply here on a voluntary basis, for free.
If you need a more reactive assistance, you can check out our professional support plans: http://www.noelios.com/services/ There are already many resources available, please make sure you check them all: - web site and FAQ (http://www.restlet.org) - mailing archives (http://www.restlet.org/community/lists) - issue tracker (http://restlet.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectIssues) - wiki (http://wiki.restlet.org) - blog (http://blog.noelios.com) with entried on JAX-RS / JSR-311 Also, did you check the FAQ links in the response I sent to your question in the REST discussion list? Do you understand better now the value of Restlet compared to Servlet? > So, for instance, can I do the "translation" I was talking about with Restlet instead of servlet + spring DataBinders? Could you describe your use case? Spring can be integrated with Restlets in many ways so I guess this is feasible. But there might be better alternatives. > Is there some special way to manage queues? Could you be more precise? How would you like Restlet to help you here? We don't have a JMS connector yet for example, but it could be easily added. > logging? We have a built-in access logging service you can leverage. See the Javadocs, org.restlet.service package. > monitoring? Nothing specific here even though we consider JMX support for a future version. See: http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=17 I would also like to add a RESTful HTTP alternative in the future. > What's the level of integration of Restlet with SpringIntegration (and/or Cammel), if any? And while i'm at it, and with OSGi? Restlet in an open framework that can integrate with any other project/API to back your Resources. For OSGi, check out the upcoming talk at EclipseCon 2008 on "" made by the NASA Jet Propulsion Lab: http://www.eclipsecon.org/2008/index.php?page=sub/&id=462 > What's the relation between Restlets and JSR-311? Are the Restlet team committed to conform to it? Check out our blog and the list archive. If you need complementary details, let us know: http://blog.noelios.com/2007/04/25/restlet-api-and-jsr-311-api/ http://blog.noelios.com/2007/02/14/new-jsr-to-define-a-high-level-rest-api-for-java/ Important point, we are committed to supporting JAX-RS in Restlet (see Stephan effort and remember that JAX-RS is an API still in design). Restlet framework s also much larger than this upcoming standard. The core Restlet API is class oriented, both server and client side while JAX-RS is annotation oriented and server side only. Restlet API is also a fully alternative to Servlet API, with provision to support NIO, protocol abstraction, and many more... It is also a stable and proven solution with many references in production. Best regards, Jerome 2008/1/31, António Mota <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hi, thanks for your reply.
