RESTHeart, in summary

• Zero development time: just start it and the data REST API is ready to use

• CRUD operations API on your data

• Data model operations API: create dbs, collections, indexes and the data structure

• Super easy setup with convention over configuration approach

• Pluggable security with User Management and ACL

• HAL hypermedia type

• Super lightweight: pipeline architecture, ~6Mb footprint, ~200Mb RAM peek usage, starts in milliseconds,..

• High throughput: very small overhead on MongoDB performance

• Horizontally scalable: fully stateless architecture supporting MongoDB replica sets and shards

• Built on top of undertow non-blocking web server

• Embeds the brilliant HAL browser by Mike Kelly (the author of the HAL specifications)

• Support Cross-origin resource sharing CORS so that your one page web application can deal with RESTHeart running on a different domain.
