Highlights
- Understand the advantages of the REST architecture for web services.
- Use JAX-RS to develop simple RESTful services.
- Control dispatching to service methods based on URL patterns and HTTP methods.
- Bind request values to method parameters when expressed as HTTP query parameters, form values, headers, cookies, and more.
- Manage XML content using XML Schema and JAXB.
- Incorporate XML entities into service input and output.
- Take advantage of lifecycle and context services available to JAX-RS services as Java EE components.

"Our tailored course provided a well rounded introduction and also covered some intermediate level topics that we needed to know. Clive gave us some best practice ideas and tips to take away. Fast paced but the instructor never lost any of the delegates"
