Due to some scheduling conflicts, we will be holding our October meeting one week early. We hope you can attend!
OData, Open Data Protocol, is a web protocol for querying
and updating data over HTTP using open web standards. In this session we will
go over the details of how OData facilitates the consumption and publication of
data. We will explain OData syntax and definitions. In the end we'll go over
how to get started writing your OData service and how to consume open services
in your own applications.
