RESTful Services

RESTful services are a way for different software applications to communicate over the internet using a set of principles and protocols. They use standard web technologies like HTTP and are based on resources identified by URLs. Clients can perform actions such as retrieving, creating, updating, or deleting these resources using standard methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. This approach makes services easy to use and understand, as it relies on familiar web concepts and enables systems to interact seamlessly, promoting scalability and flexibility in software development.
