After reading a lot about the differences between REST and SOAP, I got the impression that REST is just another word for HTTP. Can someone explain what functionality REST ad
As I understand it, REST enforces the use of the available HTTP commands as they were meant to be used.
For example, I could do:
GET
http://example.com?method=delete&item=xxx
But with rest I would use the "DELETE" request method, removing the need for the "method" query param
DELETE
http://example.com?item=xxx
