Building RESTful Apps and Services Using MVC
Building RESTful Apps and Services Using MVC
By :: Brian Noyle
The presentation will leverage a suite of tools in the “http goodness” toolbox to discuss the implementation of RESTful applications and services utilizing ESRI's REST and JavaScript APIs in association with Microsoft’s ASP.NET MVC framework. Caching, linking, bookmarking, and friendly URLs are all nice features of the RESTful architecture but, as a developer, consider the impact on your next Geoweb app of having absolute control over addressable resources (data views and maps), guaranteed code quality governed by TDD principals, the opportunity for pluggable back end services in a hybrid solution, and the opening of doors for software and data interoperability over HTTP!
