An OpenAPI Specification is done at the beginning stages of building APIs/microservices. On my team, we all meet to discuss our contract with the clients who will consume the data our services are providing. This is a great technology to learn, especially as a DevOps engineer.

@GTJR900 : Also familiarize yourself with Postman and how we utilize OAS with it. We use this A LOT when we test our APIs. It's critical that you know this as a developer.
