### REST
REST an acronym for Representational State Transfer, which is an architectural style rather than a formal protocol. There is actually much debate about what exactly REST is and is not.

Objects in a typical REST system are addressable by URI and interacted with using verbs in the HTTP protocol. An HTTP GET to a particular URI fetches and object and returns a server-specified set of fields. An HTTP PUT edits an object; an HTTP DELETE deletes an object; and so on.
