From Roy Fielding's thesis[0]: """ REST provides a set of architectural constraints that, when applied as a whole, emphasizes scalability of component interactions, generality of interfaces, independent deployment of components, and intermediary components to reduce interaction latency, enforce security, and encapsulate legacy systems. I describe the software engineering principles guiding REST and the interaction constraints chosen to retain those principles, contrasting them to the constraints of other architectural styles. """ Amazon is one of the few companies that has actually committed to this. There's no reason the Internet of Things can't follow this pattern too.
