Create REST Web Service with Application Module declaratively in ADF 12.2.1

REST stands for Representational State Transfer, REST is an architectural style not a protocol as SOAP that's why it can use any other protocol like SOAP, HTTP etc.
REST requires less bandwidth and resources (lighter) than SOAP

New ADF 12.2.1 supports creating RESTful web services directly from Application Module, In previous versions we have to do everything manually
