  • Patent number: 10802891
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to data science and data analysis, computer software and systems, including a subset of intermediary executable instructions constituting an communication interface between various software and/or hardware platforms, and, more specifically, to an automated application interface governance platform to automate development, maintenance, and governance functions for application interfaces, such as harmonizing, validating, and/or replicating application program interfaces (“APIs”). For example, a method may include identifying a subset of application interfaces, synthesizing a data structure for each application interface, analyzing the data structure against other data structures to identify duplicative portions among multiple data structures, substituting a reference to a location into a portion of multiple application interfaces.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10761908
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to computer software and systems, including a subset of intermediary executable instructions constituting an communication interface between various software and/or hardware platforms, and, more specifically, to an application interface integration design management platform configured to analyze distinctive repositories (e.g., version-control application-based repositories) and identify application interface files and data components to form a consolidated data source with which to perform a unified search (e.g., a global search) to implement different portions of various application interfaces in development of application program interfaces (“APIs”), and the like.
    Type: Grant
