Kindly read Roy Thomas Fielding's 2000 Dissertation, where he described his architecture style for the web This is a must read for , especially 'architects'. Enough Talk, Let us show some code Yes read about JAX-RS annotations, otherwise it is a simple Java Class (packaged as a servlet - WAR, see Vogellas article first.
