Subject: Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications Version 1.0 published by the TOSCA TC


We are pleased to announce the approval and publication of a new Committee Specification by the members of the OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) TC:

Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications Version 1.0
Committee Specification 02
09 May 2013

Overview: 

The concept of a “service template” is used to specify the “topology” (or structure) and “orchestration” (or invocation of management behavior) of IT services. Typically, services are provisioned in an IT infrastructure and their management behavior must be orchestrated in accordance with constraints or policies from there on, for example in order to achieve service level objectives.

This specification introduces the formal description of Service Templates, including their structure, properties, and behavior.

Members of the TOSCA Technical Committee [1] requested a Special Majority Vote to approve this specification as a Committee Specification. The specification had been released for public review as required by the TC Process [2]. The vote to approve as a Committee Specification passed [3], and the approved CS02 is now available online in the OASIS Library as referenced above.

Our congratulations to the TC on achieving this milestone.
