Why is a small fixed vocabulary seen as an advantage to RESTful services?
- by Matt Esch
So, a RESTful service has a fixed set of verbs in its vocabulary. A RESTful web service takes these from the HTTP methods. There are some supposed advantages to defining a fixed vocabulary, but I don't really grasp the point. Maybe someone can explain it.
Why is a fixed vocabulary as outlined by REST better than dynamically defining a vocabulary…
