Abstract
We present a REST approach to build Health services on the Web. Our proposal originates by the necessity of evolving the current regional health service to accommodate emerging needs that are too complex to accomplish with the current system. The original system extends on the regional scale of Emilia-Romagna, and it is one of the most advanced in Italy. Our architecture inherits some of the basic Web methodologies and techniques to implement an highly scalable and flexible system that is capable to satisfy the current needs and their planned evolutions. Moreover, our approach should allow for an effortlessly addressing of future requirements not foreseen at the moment. Without revolutionizing the current IT infrastructure, our approach introduces a new paradigm that could be implemented by a sophisticated interface to access data and resources.
