REST has now become a standard way to develop web services and when it comes to Java, there are many frameworks and libraries available, e.g. JAX-RS, Restlet, Jersey, RESTEasy, Apache CFX etc., but I encourage Java developers to use Spring MVC to develop RESTful web services. But, some of you might ask, why use Spring MVC Framework to develop RESTful web services in Java? What are the advantages, and why is it better than other frameworks and libraries available out there?
Well, the most important reason, I think, to use Spring for developing RESTful web service is that you can use your Spring MVC experience for developing RESTful web services and you don’t need to learn a new framework or library, which means you can quickly roll out your REST API. https://goo.gl/5e29bk #DataIntegration #ML
