As a kind of help to recognize better what to do, just consider making
the session persistent, call it a resource and all exchange goes into
the persistent session, ehm, resource. The good thing is that many
problems of in-memory sessions disappear (replication, when to persist,
memory limitations). Furthermore it helps to create clearly defined
operations on the resource moving the resource possibly through a
sequence of clearly defined states.
Disclaimer: I am not an expert. This is just how I start to understand
the REST concept.
