The OpenAPI specification has emerged as the industry standard for describing RESTful APIs. This specification, which was formed around the open-source project known as Swagger, paved the way for developers to discover, build, and manage APIs using API schemas.
In this episode of cocktails, we are joined by one of the newly appointed co-chairmans of the OpenAPI Initiative Business Governance Board to discuss the OpenAPI specification itself, its competitive and collaborative nature with other existing formats, ways on how to address the challenges developers face when producing APIs, and what lies ahead for the future of the industry with APIs.
