Deploying JAX-RS 2.0 applications to Liberty
You can use Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) to develop services that follow
Representational State Transfer (REST) principles. RESTful services are based on manipulating
resources. Resources can contain static or dynamically updated data. By identifying the resources in
your application, you can make the service more useful and easier to develop. Liberty
provides two Liberty features, jaxrs-1.1
and jaxrs-2.0, to support the
JAX-RS programming model.
