This chapter describes the Java API for RESTful web services (JAX-RS, defined in JSR331). RESTEasy is an portable implementation of this specification which can run in any Servlet container. Tight integration with JBoss Application Server is available for optimal user experience in that environment. While JAX-RS is only a server-side specification, RESTeasy has innovated to bring JAX-RS to the client through the RESTEasy JAX-RS Client Framework. Detailed documentation on RESTEasy is available here. The source for this tutorial is in github repository git://github.com/tdiesler/javaee-tutorial.git OpenShift, is a portfolio of portable cloud services for deploying and managing applications in the cloud. This tutorial shows how to deploy a RESTful web service on the free OpenShift Express JavaEE cartridge that runs JBossAS 7. An application running on Android shows how to leverage JBoss technology on mobile devices. Specifically, we show how use the RESTEasy client API from an Android device to integrate with a RESTful service running on a JBossAS 7 instance in the cloud. The following topics are addressed What are RESTful web services Creating a RESTful server endpoint Deploying a RESTful endpoint to a JBossAS instance in the cloud RESTEasy client running on an Android mobile device [ *] code https://github.com/tdiesler/javaee-tutorial
