Negroni Features

Negroni is a cloud-based data modeler built on the Common Data Model (CDM) standard. Define reusable, metadata-driven entities and manifests once, then export them as CDM files, database schemas, or deployable Martini packages — before they become databases, services, APIs, or applications.

Instead of modeling a manifest and its entities by hand, generate them from an existing schema. Import a CDM manifest, connect to a live database, or upload an API specification to bootstrap a manifest automatically.

‍

Design deployable data model definitions with Negroni manifests. A manifest groups related entities into a single business domain, defines the relationships and metadata around them, and stores the build configuration used to export APIs, services, and database schemas from that model.

‍

Define the business objects that make up your data model. Use Negroni's entity editor to create, extend, and manage entities — with attributes, relationships, and version history — before they're used to generate schemas, APIs, and services.

‍

Start from approved model foundations instead of creating every data model from scratch. Negroni helps teams reuse core CDM assets and CDM Library manifests, then extend them for specific business domains and projects.

‍

Generate working Martini assets from Negroni manifests. Use Negroni Blueprint to turn a governed data model into Martini data models, database configuration, APIs, CRUD services, and a deployable Martini package — without hand-building the same structure across your database, APIs, and services.

‍

Export database schemas directly from Negroni manifests for PostgreSQL, MySQL, HSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Oracle. Generate database-specific DDL from an approved manifest for use outside Martini, without manually recreating entities, relationships, and query patterns by hand.

‍

Add an optional review step before a manifest is published from the Project Navigator to the CDM Library. Submit manifests for review, assign reviewers, track decisions, and collaborate through comments before shared models change.
