Below are some c# REST interview questions with answers which were asked in Polaris.
In which scenarios we will be going for Restful web services.
A restful service makes your communication simple by using simple HTTP protocol and by using simple GET POST methods. So if your client does not understand complicated SOAP then REST is a better approach. For instance clients created by programming like VB6, c++ do not know how to parse SOAP.
Http URI based services and Restful services are really similar?
Http URL and REST are different things one just identifies your URL and the other is architectural style.
Is REST services is possible without WCF in .NET?
Yes, you can do the same by using web application, MVC and WebAPI.
