Android Web Service Tutorial
Creating web service application in android is not a difficult task. We can easily create a restful web service application in android to authenticate or save information into the external database such as oracle, mysql, postgre sql, sql server using other application developed in java, .net, php etc languages. That is what we are going to do.
Android Restful Web Service Tutorial
Before developing web services application, you must have basic knowledge of SOAP and Restful web services. That is why, we are going to discuss basic points about web services such as what is web service and brief information about SOAP and Restful web services.
What is Web Service?
A web service is a standard for exchanging information between different types of applications irrespective of language and platform. For example, an android application can interact with java or .net application using web services.
