Designed from the cloud down
OHIP is a cloud-native solution “designed from the cloud down” to help customers and partners meet not just today’s marketplace demands but tomorrow’s as well. The entire platform runs in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), specifically in Kubernetes, as fully stateless and independently deployable microservices. This modern architecture enables OHIP and its key components, such as the developer portal and API gateways (runtime component responsible for providing secure and rapid access to our hospitality APIs), to be highly scalable and capable of securely handling high levels of throughput.
Built by builders for builders
Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform is designed for self-service integations. We give customers and integration partners the modern, powerful tools they need to build their integrations, and then we get out of their way. (Don’t worry, our experts are ready and willing to help, if needed.) The intuitive, partner-focused developer portal offers the following features:
• Search hospitality APIs through a responsive user interface
• Access detailed API documentation through an interactive page enabled with Apiary Embed capability
• Discover the different resources available in an API, including visualization of request/response schemas, sample payloads, and client-code generation in multiple languages, such as Java, JavaScript, Python and Go
• Interact with Oracle Apiary’s mock and debugging servers
• Register and manage applications, including issuing and re-issuing of Application Keys
• Subscribe applications to use hospitality APIs
• Visualize and manage application metadata such as contact details, Application Keys, and to which APIs an application is subscribed
Not just open, open source
The pandemic underscored the need for hospitality providers to have flexible systems that can be adapted quickly to exceed changing guest expectations. Making it easier for partners to adapt and innovate, Oracle has made the REST API specifications in OHIP freely available as an open source project through GitHub.
By opening the REST API specifications for Oracle Hospitality OPERA Cloud, the entire hospitality industry can directly benefit from years of development efforts. The move not only offers hoteliers a way to adopt new solutions faster, but it also represents a considerable step towards having a common industry reference for REST APIs.
Along with the full set of REST API specifications, accompanying Postman collections with over 1,000 sample messages are now available in our Oracle Hospitality GitHub Repository. Developers are actively using these samples as the framework for researching and building their own integrations.
Solid security for piece of mind in modern times
Security is paramount in Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform. All our APIs offer fine-grained OAuth 2.0 based security plus individual application-key based access. In addition, hotels can decide exactly who has access to what APIs in their environment. OHIP offers users a true self-service experience that requires no Oracle intervention.
