1. How to publish data and
transformations over API​
with CloverDX
Tech Demo: CloverDX Data Services
Calvin Cortez

2. Exposed Protocols and routines that allow us to interact with and utilize systems’
functionality
Makes it easier to share application functionality either with your team or the world
Client → Server model
SOAP, REST and more
Application Programming Interface (API)

3. Our applications can now effectively communicate with each other while also
maintaining effective modularization of their functions.
Common API type is REST API that uses HTTP transport and JSON documents
Other APIs possible as well – different protocols and different data formats (XML, CSV, …)
We need a way to effectively pass incongruent data between systems
APIs in a Data Driven world

4. On-demand, requested by application
Publish Data as Source

5. “Collection point” driven by applications
Publish Data as Target

6. Shared data logic available to applications
Publish Business Logic

7. Scripting
Time consuming development process and prone to human error
Databases exposed as API Frameworks
Don't provide data wrangling capabilities (limits how we can effectively use our data)
Both of these approaches become incredibly difficult to manage when we try to apply
them to enterprise level data ecosystems
Options for achieving API goals

8. Visual design for fast development
Wrap your business logic in an API
Reuse the logic from your pipeline and publish as an API
Event-driven data processing pipeline – call your functions whenever needed
Full transformation capabilities for API development
Data Services

9. Mini services vs Micro services
