How To Create API Based Web Service In Symfony2

Question

I am trying to create a API based service using Symfony2 which is the main framework our company tends to work on. I am told to research the best way to create a web service, ie: REST, SOAP, etc. I am not a very experienced programmer. I am just trying to research the subject matter.

What we basically need is a system that would provide and API to make other apps on any platform or device. For example: I can use the Twitter API to post/fetch tweets. In the same way we are trying to create a E-comm product that would help other users to build sites and apps above the platform regardless of the programming language, device or OS.

We are trying to convert our product into an API based service from a pure "MVC application".
