So you’ve read over the technical documents regarding Ground2Cloud and you look like Linguini trying to understand how Remy the mouse learned to cook. They say I have a technical background (a term used as loosely as possible with me), and I still don’t fully understand what this product does. So, I asked around and got a high-level idea of what is going on.

At its core, Ground2Cloud lives up to its name. It gives an organization the ability to expose their private cloud-based data to a cloud-type application. Simple, end of article. BUT it’s me, and you’re reading this, so I’m going to take a guess and say IF you take that one sentence to your CTO, CIO, or CPO, they’re going to look at you with incredulity (Scrabble word right there!). Without further ado, here are some talking points for you to play with. https://goo.gl/o9phW4 #DataIntegration #ML

By doing away with groups that focus on specific parts of a person’s identity, a company is doing away with a space in which people can feel truly comfortable expressing themselves. In turn, it may lose the collective voice of those ERG members and the opportunity to learn about their particular needs. Eliminating the groups may lead to the company losing these workers’ energy and talents, as well. https://goo.gl/ZA22jC #GlobalHR #HRTech

#ICYDK: Raml 1.0 introduces a new concept called DataType. This fragment is used to declare type in a separate yaml file. This is not just a simplification of JSON schema to conform raml/yaml. It also brings simple improvements and syntax sugar that allows to write types in more concise form, and therefore more readable. In this article, we will look at how to define our own data types and reuse them in the API and its implementation.

Custom Data Types

Anyone who has designed an API knows that it is probably always necessary to define custom data structures as simple data types are not meaningful enough. Below, you can see data types that are supported by Raml 1.0. We have a group of scalar types like integer, date-only, and so on. We have also compound structures like array and objects. XSD and JSON schema are a separate type as a developer can still share custom types using these schemas. https://goo.gl/e1NND4 #DataIntegration #ML
