Hi Suresh, +1 for use JSON schema. But one concern is, according to the JSON schema home page[1] there is only one official JSON schema validator for java and it is released under LGPLv3. I am doubt that we can use this because of license issues. There are few non-official project available but not sure whether they support newer version(v4) of JSON Schema. If not we need to write a JSON validator :).
