ASP.NET API Versioning

ASP.NET API versioning gives you a powerful, but easy-to-use method for adding API versioning semantics to your new and existing REST services built with ASP.NET. The API versioning extensions define simple metadata attributes and conventions that you use to describe which API versions are implemented by your services. You don't need to learn any new routing concepts or change the way you implement your services in ASP.NET today. The default API versioning configuration is compliant with the versioning semantics outlined by the Microsoft REST Guidelines. There are also a number of customization and extension points available to support transitioning services that may not have supported API versioning in the past or supported API versioning with semantics that are different from the Microsoft REST versioning guidelines.
