REST would work for logging events as they happen. Transaction
coordination, auditing, or reporting. Another entity can read the "state"
for risk or settlement purposes.
Imagine a stock market transaction with each event sent to RESTful
interface:
My Offer $1000.
My Terms 100 IBM.
You CounterOffer $1100.
I Accept.
(becomes a legal contract here)
I Deliver $1100.
You Deliver 100 IBM.
End transaction.
