Are Resource Oriented Architectures the Future of Data APIs?

Fresh from the API Strategy & Practice – slides from The Future of Data session.

SlashDB’s founder Victor Olex gave talk on this topic at the API Strategy & Practice conference yesterday.

[quote]Where service oriented APIs are designed around business functions, resource oriented architectures are about providing unobstructed access to data assets. They are complementary and have distinct uses and trade-offs.[/quote]

One participant remarked that the talk was in Tim O’Reilly style, entertaining but also with a solid basis in facts and history. We take it as the highest compliment.
