Overview

Stoplight Prism is an open source HTTP mock server and request validation proxy. Point it at an OpenAPI, Swagger or Postman description and it stands up a live mock API that returns schema conformant example responses and validates every request against the contract, so teams can build against an API before the backend exists and prove a service honours its published contract.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers Prism fully installed on a hardened, fully patched image with a working sample OpenAPI specification served on first boot, so a live mock API is reachable within minutes. Prism is unauthenticated by design, so there is no login to manage; cloudimg runs it as a dedicated unprivileged service account under a hardened systemd unit that exposes only the mock, with no baked SSH key or default credential. Backed by 24/7 support.

Common uses

  • Stand up a live mock API from an OpenAPI, Swagger or Postman description so front end and integration teams build before the backend exists
  • Validate that requests and responses conform to an API contract to catch mismatches early
  • Run a contract validation proxy in front of a real service to enforce its published specification
