In the last post I had mentioned quite a few number of terms which might look unfimiliar to some of you . I would like to explain what they mean .
Web Services : It allows heterogeneous systems to communicate with each other using messages . Due to the nature of the systems being unique , the need for one system to work with another arises. XML is the most common format used to send messages which all systems understand as they are simple lines of text.
REST : Representational State Transfer means each unique URL is a representation of some object . You can get the contents out of that object using HTTP GET then you might use POST , PUT , DELETE to modify the state of the object .
SOAP : Simple Object Access Protocol means that the protocol is used for exchanging structured information in the implementation of web services used in computer networks . It is simple and extensible and allows you to get around firewalls.
PHP : PHP is the fourth widely used programming langauge . PHP is a scripting language used in web development for making dynamic and interactive web pages .
