IV. COMPARISON METHOD


In the context of software development, there are direct and
indirect metrics [2]. These metrics will be taken as the basis for
the comparison method. These direct and indirect metrics will
be used to point out the key principles that should be taken into
the account when selecting between SOAP or REST
approaches.
A. Cost
REST is based on a simple technological infrastructure,
where the service can be developed with minimal development
tool usage. It automatically reduces the cost that would be
needed to achieve the same result with the SOAP approach [4]. Fig. 2. REST and SOAP response time measurements [10].
In addition, it is possible to work without REST client at the
