EntryScape 3.3 is now available – a version that includes extended support for the latest version of the DCAT-AP-SE 2.0.0 metadata profile. This updated version of EntryScape also includes support for data services that make it easier to publish APIs. This makes it easier for computers to talk to computers. It also enables building more stable foundations for consumers to build exciting innovations and services based on data services that organizations publish.
EntryScape 3.3 is now here and it enables a lot of exciting things with the updated DCAT-AP-SE 2.0.0 metadata profile. One new feature is the reintroduction of data services that were already present in EntryScape 2.11. This means that the systems you have, which have open APIs that continuously deliver data for use, can be set up as a data service. This is preferred instead of being added as a distribution to a data set. This will be more convenient for both the publisher and the data consumer.
