REST, JSON probably.

Would need to know more context about what you're developing to provide much concrete.

Have you considered PHP, Node, Python, etc instead of using IWS ?

subject: [WEB400] SOAP vs. REST

Folks:



I'm about to do an incredibly scary thing, start to develop my own software that includes the use of IWS. To suggest I'm starting from the beginning is at best charitable. I can architect the software, that's easy. Actually doing the development, my RPG credentials were revoked a long time ago, so there's that learning curve. Then there are some decisions to be made in the architecture. To that end:



So as part of the software planning process the question comes up SOAP vs.
REST. I'll assume based on the threads I've seen lately that most folks would prefer to use JSON, therefore REST as opposed to SOAP which would use XML.



This will be entirely IBM i based software with both traditional languages/objects and some open source components as well. DB2 will be the database of record.



Thoughts?
