Session Title: Jersey: Building RESTful Web Services on the Java™ Platform
Session Abstract: Jersey is the reference implementation of the Java™ API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS). It enables users to use the Java programming language or another language based on the Java Virtual Machine to build RESTful Web services in a clean and very intuitive way.

This Hands-on Lab shows how to download and set up Jersey and develop a simple Web service with it. Participants will then modify the service to use some of the more advanced features such as input parameters, resource injection, and returning several alternative representations (plain text, JavaScript Object Notation [JSON], XML). The presentation also discusses what value-add features Jersey offers besides the implementation of the standard JAX-RS API and shows how to develop a client interacting with a RESTful Web service, using the Jersey client API.
