Schema Surveying And Assessment

Schema are the often unseen digital objects that make up the enterprise. Schema literally defines and validates all of API operations, which in turn defines and validates all of enterprise operations. Without a proper surveying and assessment of the schema in use inside and outside of the enterprise, it becomes impossible to understand and stabilize API operations. API Evangelist offers API surveying and assessment services that help you discover and define your schema using the APIs.json and JSON Schema specifications. APIs.json is used to catalog the business details of how each schema is used, and JSON Schema is used to define and validate the technical details, all published to a single GitHub repository for integration into your operations, offering the following services. - **Creation** - Help you bring new schema to life for use across many different APIs. - **Definition** - Properly survey and define your existing schema landscape across APIs. - **Rules** - Establish a baseline of rules for how schema are defined, manged, and used. - **Source of Truth** - Help establish Git as a single source of truth and schema registry. The investment in getting your enterprise schema house in order is one of the more stabilizing things you can do for your API operations. Having multiple versions of JSON Schema in motion across operations, and a lack of source of truth, as well as inconsistency in the creation, management, and use of schema will introduce many downstream problems that are easily fixed. API Evangelist is here to help push the reset button on how your organization approaches something that is ubiquitous across the enterprise. Schema, and JSON Schema is the unseen bits and bytes of your enterprise operations. Standardizing and investing more into how teams are creating and managing schema should be one of the first areas any enterprise invests in when it comes to API governance, and API Evanglist is here to help you get started.
