[Tim Bell <Tim.Bell@xxxxxxx>]

I have an api, diablo nova v1.1.

What we are talking about is if it covers 100% functionality.

I can start my deployment testing with v1.1.  The limiting factor is not v1.1 vs v1.x for most sites. It is packaging, user exits and integration, not whether feature X is in the latest API.

Tim.

A cloud platform simply isn't functional without an API. It is a core requirement.

No API, no cloud.
