Hi Sairam,
Yes, all drivers use the REST interface.
You can easily use i.e. wireshark or ngrep to listen to arangosh talking to
arangod:
ngrep -Wbyline port 8529 -d lo
interface: lo (127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0)
filter: (ip or ip6) and ( port 8529 )
####
T 127.0.0.1:52843 -> 127.0.0.1:8529 [AP]
GET /_db/_system/_api/version?details=true HTTP/1.1.
Host: 127.0.0.1.
Connection: Keep-Alive.
User-Agent: ArangoDB.
Accept-Encoding: deflate.
Authorization: Basic cm9vdDo=.

during the 3.x release cycle we plan to also be able to send velocypack
which will be a bit less chatty then json. Support in arangosh and the
drivers will arive in the next months.
Hope this helps?
Cheers,
Willi
