Question
Implementation of REST Services in Pega 5.3
Is it possible to implement REST Services in Pega 5.3 version? OOTB it is not available.Is it worth doing research/POC on this implementation in 5.3 or upgrading the application to pega 7 is the easiest way?

You can probably use a HTTP-CONNECTOR to get at the endpoints (REST is easy at that level) - but I assume you need to map JSON back into PRPC properties - and there is no facility in PRPC53 to do that.
If your REST endpoint happens to use XML rather than JSON, you might be able to do this using PARSE XML rules.
But really: your best option (not only for the REST stuff!) is to upgrade to Pega7 !

Prit,
My question is about PRPC as a service REST in 5.3 not as a connector.

OOTB not sure if it is possible, but by importing java jersey/jax rs jar and by writing java code you can try.
