What is The Course All About?

OData (Open Data Protocol) is an OASIS standard that defines the best practice for building and consuming RESTful APIs. OData helps you focus on your business logic while building RESTful APIs without having to worry about the approaches to define request and response headers, status codes, HTTP methods, URL conventions, media types, payload formats and query options etc. OData also guides you about tracking changes, defining functions/actions for reusable procedures and sending asynchronous/batch requests etc. Additionally, OData provides facility for extension to fulfil any custom needs of your RESTful APIs.

OData RESTful APIs are easy to consume. The OData metadata, a machine-readable description of the data model of the APIs, enables the creation of powerful generic client proxies and tools. Some of them can help you interact with OData even without knowing anything about the protocol. The following 6 steps demonstrate 6 interesting scenarios of OData consumption across different programming platforms. But if you are a non-developer and would like to simply play with OData, OData is the best start for you.

Why Should You Learn This Course?

It is essential to understand that OData is not only related to SAP; it is an open data protocol, and there are a variety of frameworks and languages (ABAP, JAVA, Node.js, Python) that can be used to build an OData.

OData helps applications concentrate on business logic without being concerned about the various API approaches to define request and response headers, status codes, HTTP methods, URL conventions, media types, payload formats, query options, etc.

How Does OData Affect CMS Platforms?

Historically, data that was connected to a CMS platform via backend driver allowed users to poll for data. But as businesses of all sizes underwent digital transformations, this was no longer an option.

Information on a website can no longer be static content. Systems need to be able to access data in real-time to help fulfill customers’ expectations.

Static content is published to regular files on your server and handled using the simplest methods available to your web server. Dynamic content is generated for users at the time that they request the page. CMS platforms depend on dynamic content to provide a more customized journey for buyers.

OData provides marketers with essential connectivity to their CMS platforms and other critical access points. More specifically, real-time data is being pulled from different systems and allows users to access the data where it lives, which in turn, results in more business critical decisions being made.

OData has reached a point of maturity, positioning it to become the gold standard for connecting mobile, enterprise mobile, SaaS, Web and PaaS applications to a variety of data sources such as Salesforce, Google Analytics, Oracle and SQL Server. Real-time data access provides users with critical insights not previously available in the days of long lag times. Marketers can now see how information is flowing, security details and gain insight into trends that can ultimately impact business decisions and provide an important competitive advantage.

What’s Next?

As businesses look to facilitate access to their wealth of data, OData provides the ideal means to standardize the link between applications and the broad spectrum of enterprise data sources. Marketers get some much needed help simplifying their CMS platforms and dealing with the ongoing influx of data from a variety of sources.

Looking forward, OData will continue to become the standard protocol of choice for mobile and cloud apps in the increasingly agile enterprise, as it allows users to analyze data in real-time from any number of sources.

Salary Trends:
