A developer is designing a new internal API for managing employee records. The API should be stateless, meaning each request must contain all information needed to process it. Which design principle should the developer follow to ensure statelessness?

Allow the server to cache client-specific data between requests

Store session state on the server and reference it with a session ID

Use cookies to maintain client state across requests

Include all necessary state in each request, such as authentication tokens and resource identifiers

A configuration management tool needs to update the CPU limit of an existing container instance. The API endpoint /containers/{id} supports full replacement of the resource. The tool has the container ID 'abc123' and the new full configuration. Which request should the tool send to replace the entire container configuration?

PUT /containers/abc123 with the full new configuration in the body

POST /containers/abc123 with the full new configuration in the body

DELETE /containers/abc123 then POST /containers with the full new configuration

PATCH /containers/abc123 with the full new configuration in the body

What does an HTTP status code of 404 indicate in a REST API response?

The requested resource was not found.

The client is not authorized to access the resource.

The server encountered an internal error.
