Web services - json-rcp

Rails
1

Hello.

I am starting to write a web services in RoR, and considering different
technologies to use. I am wondering if someone had experience working
with
json-rcp and what are its (dis)advandages over SOAP and REST.

Thank you,
Derek

The short answer is that if you’re building web services with Rails use
REST.

The not so short answer is that you’re not going to be able to base your
decision on anything that could possibly fit into a forum reply. It’s
your application, do what’s best for your application.

You’re not going to find any shortcuts, you’ll just have to do the
research. First, understand how Rails implements REST, which is clearly
the preferred technique for providing web services with Rails.
