JORM (Json Object-Relational Mapping) is not REST

This technical article argues that many APIs labeled as REST are actually JORM (JSON Object-Relational Mapping), which tightly couples services. It contrasts JORM with true REST's hypermedia-driven approach, using a banking API example to show how hypermedia enables discoverability, reduces code duplication, and allows independent service evolution.
