CRUD
/krʊd/
n. “Create, Read, Update, Delete — the alphabet of persistent data.”
CRUD is an acronym representing the four fundamental operations that can be performed on persistent storage or resources in a database or application: Create, Read, Update, and Delete. These operations form the backbone of most software systems, allowing users and applications to manage data effectively.
REST
/rɛst/
n. “Architect it once, call it anywhere.”
REST, short for Representational State Transfer, is an architectural style for designing networked applications. It emphasizes a stateless client-server communication model where resources are identified by URIs, and interactions are carried out using standard HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE.
