Identify and discover

Cognitive capabilities provide application discovery to identify schema application components. Visually discover and select objects, which are combined with search and filtering capabilities, to accurately and efficiently discover schema objects.

Enable collaboration

Based on organizational needs, developers, quality engineers, or administrators can collaborate with efficiency based on their roles—whether provisioning application versions, creating test environments, or setting site rules.

Instate approval mechanisms

Establish a mechanism through which authorized users can accept or reject changes before they become part of an application definition. This ensure that only approved changes are propagated to sensitive environments, preventing rogue or uncontrolled changes.
