The prevailing wisdom in webservices/web requests in general is to design your api such that you use as few requests as possible, and that each request returns therefore as much data as is needed

In database design, the accepted wisdom is to design your queries to minimise size over the network, as opposed to minimizing the number of queries.

They are both remote calls, so what gives?
