Design and develop Java-based RESTful APIs using the latest versions of
the Spring MVC and Spring Boot frameworks. This book walks you through
the process of designing and building a REST application while delving
into design principles and best practices for versioning, security,
documentation, error handling, paging, and sorting.
Spring REST provides a brief introduction to REST, HTTP, and web
