REST-Based SOA Application in the Cloud: A Text Correction Service Case Study

In this paper, we present a REST-based system, \emph{Set It Right} (\emph{SIR}), where people can get feedback on and help with short texts correction. The rapid development of the SIR system, enabled by designing it as a set of services, and also leveraging commercially offered services, illustrates the strength of the SOA paradigm. Finally, we evaluate the cloud computing techniques and infrastructures used to deploy the system and how cloud technologies can help shorten the time to market and lower the initial costs.
