Capability Delivery & Operations

Deliver and operate the reusable capability using implementation-style-appropriate engineering, testing, security, release, support, and operational ownership practices.

A reusable integration capability needs reliable delivery and operations regardless of whether it uses APIs, events, messages, files, streams, data products, connectors, or direct integration.
