REST Representational State Transfer • All interactions (messages) with the [GET] .../asset?limit=10 MediaMosa platform are done with REST-calls. <?xml version="1.0"?> <response> • REST strictly refers to a collection of network <header> <item_count>8</item_count> <item_count_total>8</item_count_total> architecture principles which outline how <item_offset>0</item_offset> resources are deﬁned and addressed. <request_process_time>0.0728</request_process_time> <request_query_count>55</request_query_count> <request_result>success</request_result> • REST is a Client-server, Stateless, <request_result_description></ request_result_description> Cacheable and Layered protocol. <request_result_id>601</request_result_id> <request_uri>[GET] asset? limit=10&user_id=admin&is_app_admin=TRUE</ request_uri> ✓ This reduces the complexity <vpx_version>1.7.3</vpx_version> </header> ✓ improves the effectiveness of performance <items> tuning <item id="1"> ✓ increases the scalability of pure server <asset_id>ZG3SmyybQ61abezpbVHrJkFF</asset_id> components ..... etc Expertise seminar: MediaMosa, Weblectures & Open Video, 10 juni 2010 SURFnet.

Metadata Harvesting using OAI-PMH Open Archives Initiative - Protocol for Metadata Harvesting • is a low-barrier mechanism for repository interoperability. • Data Providers are repositories that expose structured metadata via OAI-PMH. • Service Providers then make OAI-PMH service requests to harvest that metadata. • OAI-PMH is a set of six verbs or services that are invoked within HTTP. http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=Identify http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListSets http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_qdc http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_dc http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_lom http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=czp http://oai.surfmedia.nl/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_qdc&set=coll_id:794 Expertise seminar: MediaMosa, Weblectures & Open Video, 10 juni 2010 SURFnet.
