RESTful web services are network-based software systems built according to REST architectural constraints, typically exchanging data in JSON or XML over HTTP. They allow different applications and platforms to interact with a server's resources using standard verbs and URIs, making integration between disparate systems simpler and more scalable. Developers use them to expose functionality to web, mobile, and third-party clients.
