(10 Marks – Simple English, based only on PDF notes & textbook)

Definition of Internet of Things (IoT)

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a dynamic global network infrastructure in which physical and
virtual things are connected to the internet. These things have unique identities, physical attributes,
and virtual personalities. They use standard and interoperable communication protocols to collect
data from their environment, process the data, take suitable actions, and store the data in the cloud.
IoT systems can sense, communicate, analyze, and act with minimal human intervention, using the
internet as the backbone.
Modue-1 Notes

Characteristics of IoT
1. Dynamic and Self-Adapting

IoT devices and systems can change their behavior automatically based on the environment, user
needs, or operating conditions.
For example, a surveillance camera system can change its mode between day and night automatically
depending on light conditions.
Thus, IoT systems continuously adapt to real-time situations.
Modue-1 Notes

2. Self-Configuring

IoT devices have the ability to configure themselves automatically.

They can:

Set up network connections

Discover other devices

Update software

Work together without much manual effort

Explain the architectural constraints of REST API?

Explain the Architectural Constraints of REST API

(Exam-oriented answer – 10 Marks, simple English, based on IoT textbook/PDF)

REST API – Architectural Constraints

REST (Representational State Transfer) is a web service architecture that follows a set of architectural
constraints.
These constraints define how REST-based communication should be designed and implemented.
Following these constraints makes REST APIs simple, scalable, reliable, and easy to use.
The main architectural constraints of REST API are explained below:

1. Client–Server Constraint
In REST architecture, the system is divided into client and server.

Client: Sends requests and handles the user interface

Server: Stores data, processes requests, and sends responses

Advantages

Separation of concerns

Client and server can evolve independently

Improves scalability and portability

2. Stateless Constraint
Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 21/26
REST APIs are stateless, meaning:

Each request from the client must contain all the information required to process it

Server does not store client session information

Advantages

Improves reliability
Makes server design simple
Easier to scale REST services

3. Cacheable Constraint
Responses from a REST API should indicate whether the data is cacheable or not.

Cacheable responses can be stored by the client or intermediary

Reduces repeated server requests

Advantages

Improves performance

Reduces network traffic

Increases efficiency

4. Uniform Interface Constraint

REST APIs follow a uniform interface, meaning:

Resources are identified using URIs

Standard HTTP methods are used:

GET – retrieve data

POST – create data
PUT – update data
DELETE – remove data

Advantages

Simple and consistent design

Easy for developers to understand and use
Improves interoperability

5. Layered System Constraint

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 22/26
REST architecture supports a layered system.

Client does not know whether it is connected directly to the server or through intermediaries
Intermediaries can be:
Load balancers
Proxies
Security gateways

Advantages

Improves scalability
Enhances security
Simplifies system maintenance

6. Code-on-Demand Constraint (Optional)

In this constraint:

Server can send executable code (such as scripts) to the client

Client executes the code locally

Advantages

Extends client functionality

Reduces client complexity

Note: This is an optional constraint in REST architecture.

Conclusion
The architectural constraints of REST API—client-server, statelessness, cacheability, uniform
interface, layered system, and code-on-demand—define how REST systems work.
By following these constraints, REST APIs become scalable, flexible, simple, and well-suited for IoT
and web applications.
