OData (Open Data Protocol) is a standardized protocol for creating and consuming RESTful web APIs for data access and manipulation. OData services expose data as resources with uniform resource identifiers (URIs) and provide CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations using HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE). OData services support querying, filtering, sorting, pagination, and batch processing of data, enabling interoperability and integration between different systems and platforms.
