Consumers

OData consumers are simply applications that consume data exposed using the OData protocol.

OData consumers can vary greatly in sophistication, from something as simple as your web browser all the way through to a custom application that takes advantage of all the features of the OData Protocol.

Below we have collected a list of key OData consumers, which will continue to grow along with the OData ecosystem.

Simply pick a consumer from the list below and point it at one of our OData producers.

If you create or know of an OData consumer not listed be sure to let us know.
