Saasbook Fox, Armando; Patterson, David (2014-01-31).

13. – 13 – CSCE 740 Spring 2014 2.6 500 Feet: Active Record for Models Active Record architectural pattern  a single instance of a model class (in our case, the entry for a single movie) corresponds to a single row in a specific table Saasbook Fox, Armando; Patterson, David (2014-01-31).

14. – 14 – CSCE 740 Spring 2014 CRUD  Create a new row in the table (representing a new object),  Read an existing row into a single object instance,  Update an existing row with new attribute values from a modified object instance,  Delete a row (destroying the object’s data forever). Saasbook Fox, Armando; Patterson, David (2014-01-31).

15. – 15 – CSCE 740 Spring 2014 2.7 500 Feet: Routes, Controllers, and REST REST - In 2000, Roy Fielding proposed, in his Ph.D. dissertation, a consistent way to map requests to actions that is particularly well suited to a service- oriented architecture.  identify the various entities manipulated by a Web app as resources, and  design the routes so that any HTTP request would contain all the information necessary to identify both a particular resource and the action to be performed on it.  In Rails, the route mappings are generated by code in the file config/routes.rb, Saasbook Fox, Armando; Patterson, David (2014-01-31).

19. – 19 – CSCE 740 Spring 2014 ELABORATION: REST vs. SOAP vs. WS-* SOA standards bodies created committees to develop standards for SOA interoperation. One approach resulted in a collection of elaborate protocols for Web Services including WS-Discovery, WS-Description, and others, sometimes collectively called WS-* and jokingly called “WS-Deathstar” by David Heinemeier Hansson, the creator of Rails. The competing SOAP standard (Simple Object Access Protocol) was a bit simpler but still far more complex than REST. By and large, practicing developers perceived SOAP and WS-* as overdesigned committee-driven standards burdened by the archaic design stance Saasbook Fox, Armando; Patterson, David (2014-01-31).
