Abstract:
The Open Data Protocol (OData) enables the creation of REST-based
data services, which allow resources, identified using Uniform Resource
Identifiers (URIs) and defined in an Entity Data Model (EDM), to be published
and edited by Web clients using simple HTTP messages. OData version 4.0
defines
the core semantics and facilities of the protocol, a set of recommended (but
not
required) rules for constructing URLs to identify the data and metadata
exposed
by an OData service as well as a set of reserved URL query string operators,
an
Entity Data Model (EDM), and an XML representation of the entity data model
exposed by an OData service.
TC Description:
The OASIS OData TC works to simplify the querying and sharing of data across
disparate applications and multiple stakeholders for re-use in the
enterprise,
Cloud, and mobile devices. A REST-based protocol, OData builds on HTTP,
AtomPub,
and JSON using URIs to address and access data feed resources. It enables
information to be accessed from a variety of sources including (but not
limited to) relational databases, file systems, content management systems,
and
traditional Web sites. OData provides a way to break down data silos and
increase the shared value of data by creating an ecosystem in which data
consumers can interoperate with data producers in a way that is far more
powerful than currently possible, enabling more applications to make sense of
a
broader set of data. Every producer and consumer of data that participates in
this ecosystem increases its overall value.
