What is WS REST?

WS REST refers to Web Services that adhere to the Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural style. RESTful web services use standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.) to access and manipulate resources identified by URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers). They are commonly used for building APIs that allow different applications to communicate with each other over the internet. REST emphasizes statelessness, meaning the server does not store any client context between requests, which improves scalability. Data is often exchanged in JSON or XML format. WS-REST is not a specific technology or standard, but a general approach to designing web services.
