Byfocusing on implementation rather than theory, this hands-on referencedemonstrates how easy it is to get started with services based on the RESTarchitecture.


With the book’s technical guide, you’lllearn how REST and JAX-RS work and when to use them. The RESTEasy workbook thatfollows provides step-by-step instructions for installing, configuring, andrunning several working JAX-RS examples, using the JBoss RESTEasyimplementation of JAX-RS 2.0.

  • Learn JAX-RS 2.0 features, including a client API, server-side asynchronous HTTP, and filters and interceptors
  • Examine the design of a distributed RESTful interface for an e-commerce order entry system
