title: Calling RESTful Web Services from PostgreSQL procedure/function
body: <p>I have been provided RESTful web services to push data into a remote DB of another application. I need to call these services to push data from PostgreSQL DB by sending data in JSON format as GET/POST parameters to the web service. Is it possible to call these web services from the PostgreSQL functions (periodically) which push data into my database in the first place, or write JAVA code to call these web services that run queries on PostgreSQL database and call web services to pass them to the remote DB.</p>
