Abstract
A database proxy server provides a web service interface such as a representational state transfer (“REST”) interface to a relational database. The proxy server maps a request submitted via the web service interface to a database interface. In some examples, the web service interface is a stateless REST interface that maps particular SQL statements or subroutines to a request submitted via a particular URL. A web client is able to pass parameters with a request using either URL encoding (the GET method) or within the body of the request (the POST method). The proxy server generates one or more database commands that correspond to the request. The database commands are submitted to the relational database, and the relational database performs the database commands to fulfil the request.
