API Forge
The Concept
Value
The API Forge project delivers significant value by enabling faster, more efficient, and standardized API development. Through automated validation tools and comprehensive support for both REST and Async APIs, it ensures that APIs are compliant with industry standards, reducing the risk of errors, misuse, and integration issues. The project's focus on self-healing mechanisms and structural validation fosters a robust API ecosystem. It empowers developers with templates, examples, and automated processes, driving increased productivity and reducing time-to-market for new services. Furthermore, the migration roadmap from v4 to v5 APIs future-proofs the ecosystem, ensuring long-term compatibility and scalability.
Progress to date
- API v4 to v5 Migration: Successfully migrated 7 v4 APIs (pending approval and acceptance by TM Forum Architects) using the new tooling.
- REST API Tooling Automation Delivered enhancing the OAS tooling for generating TM Forum version 5 Open API assets (User Guide, Conformance Profile, Virtual Service, CTK)
- Ongoing work for productisation of the updated tooling
