Do I require to install new software to use REST services with JavaScript and Java?
You don’t need anything beyond a web server. The basic point of REST is this:
So, let’s say you have a customer record, and the record is identified with an ID number. You might have the customer be identified with a URL like
A GET on that URL would give you the information for display; a PUT would update it; a POST would create it (most people actually use POST where formally you’d want PUT) and a DELETE deletes it.
It’s you’re responsibility to handle the exact implementation, but that’s the model.
