The Restlet Extension for ADO.NET Data Services is part of the
Restlet open source project (www.restlet.org), a lightweight REST
framework for Java. This Restlet Extention makes it easier for Java
developers to take advantage of the ADO.NET Data Services, a set of
features recently added to the .NET Framework. Part of the .NET
Framework, ADO.NET Data Services offer a simple way to expose any
sort of data in a RESTful way and is also available on the Window
Azure. The Restlet Extension for ADO.NET Data Services provides a
high-level client Application Programming Interface (API) that
extends the Restlet framework and give access to remote Data
Services hosted in an ASP.NET servers or on the Windows Azure cloud
computing platform. The extension contains a code generator that
creates proxy classes based on the metadata exposed by the ADO.NET
Data Services and a runtime library that takes care of the
communication between the Java client application and ADO.NET Data
Services.
