The number of people talking about REST without having read the wikipedia page is astonishing. Roy Fielding’s dissertation on the subject might be of interest, but that’s from 2000 and absolutely not webscale.
(Edit: /s if that wasn’t immediately obvious)
It's ok, as long as you make sure to use mongodb it will be webscale no matter what. But if you date use anything else, it won't be.
