The Web is fast becoming a serious competitor to traditional enterprise architecture approaches. This tutorial will provide an introduction to designing robust enterprise systems with RESTful. The tutorial is broken down as follows:

* Introduction and Motivation
* The Web Architecture
* Simple Web Integration including POX and URI tunnelling
* CRUD Services using URI templates and HTTP
* Hypermedia and the REST architectural style
* Scalability and how a text-based client-server polling protocol outperforms everything else!
* ATOM and ATOMPub for event-driven and pub/sub applications Security
* Conclusions and further thoughts

Participants should be comfortable with fundamental distributed computing concepts, but won't need any particular integration or middleware experience, and while the accompanying materials are full of freely-available code, the tutorial itself won't require any programming.
