The document, presented by Todd Anglin, outlines the concepts and benefits of building RESTful applications using the Open Data Protocol (OData). It discusses the importance of REST and OData in accessing and integrating vast amounts of data, emphasizing interoperability and efficiency. The presentation also highlights practical implementations and tools for developing OData services on various platforms.

Building RESTful Applications with OData
- 1. Building RESTful Applications with the Open Data Protocol Todd Anglin Chief Evangelist, Telerik Level: Intermediate
- 2. Introductions Todd Anglin Chief Evangelist, Telerik Microsoft MVP ASP Insider President NHDNUG & O’Reilly Author @toddanglin TelerikWatch.com
- 3. The Plan
- 4. What you should learn today: What is REST/OData Who created REST/OData Why use REST/OData When should you use REST/OData Where can you find REST/OData
- 5. How did we get here?
- 6. “ There is a vast amount of data available today and data is now being collected and stored at a rate never seen before. Much, if not most, of this data however is locked into specific applications or formats and difficult to access or to integrate into new uses.” - OData.org
- 7. State of Data & Services Internal SQL My App App Data CMS Share Point Cloud Custom API SQL JSON Services FB
- 8. What is REST? Re presentational S tate T ransfer What is the biggest REST implementation? World Wide Web! REST is NOT a standard! (But it uses standards) HTTP + URLs + XML*
- 10. REST Illustrated Magic Kingdom (Resource) http://disneyworld.com/parks/magic-kingdom Resource URL Representation URL Click (State Transfer) Representation
- 11. RESTful Services Core idea: let's have computers use the web the way humans do
- 12. Alternatives to REST Most common: SOAP and RPC Why use SOAP (vs REST)? Enterprise security features (WS-Security) ACID Transactions (WS-AtomicTransaction) Message error recovery (WS-ReliableMessaging) SOAP services focus on exposing application logic REST services focus on exposing “data” (or CRUD operations on data)
- 13. OData does for data what REST does for services
- 14. (Finally!) What is OData? HTTP REST-based services AtomPub Data structure JSON Data delivery format Data silo buster
- 15. What do web services require? A way to discover a service provider A way to discover available services at a provider A way to describe how to interface with service A way to execute functions provided by a service A standard messaging format A way to represent the data in exchange
- 16. Why? Interoperability Predictable access to data from any system Gaining popularity SharePoint 2010 SQL Server 2008 R2 IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale Azure Table Storage Telerik TeamPulse …
- 17. REST AND ODATA IN ACTION DEMO
- 18. Consuming OData Windows Phone 7 / iPhone / Mobile AJAX / Javascript PHP / Java / .NET Silverlight PowerPivot Simple HTTP Requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) More…
- 19. Visual Studio Tools Open Data Protocol Visualizer
- 20. CONSUMING EXISTING ODATA DEMO
- 21. Creating OData Service As simple as returning proper XML/JSON No specific platform requirements Ways to build: Using Visual Studio tools (WCF Data Services) SharePoint Lists Azure Table Storage Manually produce XML
- 22. WCF Data Services (Astoria) Build RESTful services on Microsoft platform Roots of OData protocol Built on WCF Supports ATOM (XML) and JSON data representations Automates REST for data Anything that implements IQueryable<T> or IUpdatable<T> EX: EF, LinqToSQL, 3 rd party ORM, etc.
- 23. WCF DATA SERVICES BASICS DEMO
- 24. Service Operations Functions exposed by OData Similar to RPC Accept zero or more primitive type input params Can return scalar value [WebGet] is used for an addressable query [WebInvoke] is used for insert, update, and delete http://.../OData.svc/ GetProductsByRating ?rating=5
- 25. Interceptors Query Interceptors Logic runs when resource is requested Uses: limit the data viewed, log, perform security check Change Interceptors Logic runs when a change (Add/Edit/Delete) request is made (HTTP PUT/POST/DELETE)
- 26. SERVICE OPS & INTERCEPTORS DEMO
- 27. Securing Data Services Remember! REST is NOT a protocol, it’s a pattern Same security that applies to HTTP, AtomPub, JSON Other options: EntitySetRights Hiding sensitive data with [IgnoreProperties] Infrastructure security – SSL, IP Filtering QueryInterceptors
- 28. OData & SharePoint 2010 ListData.svc Out-of-the-box OData access to SharePoint data Data is NOT anonymously available! http://siteurl /_vti_bin/listdata.svc /Announcements
- 29. When to REST? Stateless web services Scalable web services (via HTTP caching) Mutually understood context (OData) Restricted bandwidth (Mobile) Always, except when there is a reason NOT to REST
