Spring Data REST API

Spring Data REST automatically exports Spring Data repository interfaces as RESTful hypermedia-driven APIs using HAL (Hypertext Application Language). It enables CRUD operations on domain entities through discoverable REST endpoints without writing controller code. The API supports HATEOAS linking, projections, validation, and event hooks.
