Can we do REST without HTTP?
(via: techpost)
I am wondering if we can do REST without HTTP!!
I was just thinking about plug-ins for an application that we are developing. Very desirably:
- anybody should be able to write a plug-in and
- in any language they choose to write.
Thinking about the second point what came to my mind effortlessly was REST but, following that is this question:
Can we do REST without HTTP?
It would be great if my application can call all the plug-ins in a standard fashion, transparently, irrespective of what language a plug-in is implemented in.
(The link above deals with the same question.)
