Today, we will do a few things:

  1. First, we will go over a few questions that came up around the concept of the INNER JOIN.
  2. Next, we will discuss REST APIs (representational state transfer) – an architectural style for creating, update, reading, and deleting data over HTTP.
  3. Finally, we will take a look at some existing REST APIs (e.g. Spotify, YouTube, Twitter, etc.) in order to study how they organize their REST interfaces.
