- 2. Agenda What is “Open Data”? What is the “Open Data Protocol”? How is any of this useful/interesting? Build an OData service Consume OData using Jquery and code behind
- 3. What is Open Data “Open Data” is data that is made available to anyone*, in a standard, easily consumable way
- 4. Why is this useful? 1. Great ideas require great data 2. Data in non-open forms can (and most likely will) create more friction than good
- 5. 1. Great ideas require great data The Top 5 iPhone Apps of 2009 need data… 1. Tweetie 2 2. Yelp 3. Slacker (video streaming) 4. FlightTrack Pro 5. Mint
- 7. Windows iPhone Browser Windows Phone Services powering Experiences Silverlight Web Site Web API webOS
- 8. 2. Data in non-open forms can (and most likely will) create more friction than good “…good data management can generate good science, and bad data management can inhibit the process of scientific discovery.” - Ray P. Norris
- 9. How does this encourage productivity?
- 10. Why the Web Works Simple and open ◦ Addressing scheme – URI ◦ Application protocol – HTTP ◦ Representation Format – (X)HTML ◦ Response codes – HTTP status Scales best when ◦ Stateless ◦ Cached It works because people find value in it
- 11. The Web of Services should work the way the Web of Pages works
- 12. OData Just HTTP ◦ Data as resources, HTTP methods to act on it ◦ Leverage caching, proxies, authentication, … Uniform way of representing structured data ◦ Atom (full AtomPub protocol support), JSON Uniform URL conventions ◦ Navigation, filtering, sorting, paging, etc. Uniform operations ◦ Every piece of information is addressable ◦ GET, POST, PUT, DELETE always mean the same
- 13. Expose UG Event Data
