OSB - Using JSON with Oracle Service Bus REST Services

Two new Oracle Service Bus samples have been registered on the Oracle Technology Network site. The first sample project is osb-205-SimpleREST. This demonstrates how to fully implement a REST service in OSB. “Complete” means that the following HTTP methods are implemented using OSB.

• GET
• POST
• PUT
• DELETE
• HEAD
• OPTIONS

Another REST sample is now over. This is an osb-206-JSONREST project, which is an implementation sample for making OSB respond to JSON messages. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is often used in web browsers. Passing XML to a javascript client is not the only communication method. JSON is a popular method for exchanging data, especially for web developers. The reason for this is that JSON objects are easy to handle for javascript, but more infrastructure on the client side is needed to handle XML responses. 
For reasons of JSON characteristics, the osb-206-JSONREST sample targets HTTP methods GET and POST (both can be executed from a web browser). If you move a little, you can create a robust REST service for production environments and process XML and JSON payloads according to the HTTP Header Content-type. All OSB samples are uploaded to the SOA Suite sample site. The URL is as follows. Click the OSB section on the left side of the
