Open Application Model

Version

This is Open Application Model draft proposal version v0.3.1. Learn more about versioning below.

Proposed Changes

• Policy system to replace Application Scope.
• Workflow system to model modern deployment procedure (blue-green deployment, traffic splitting, multi-cloud rollout etc).

Versioning

For the model objects, Open Application Model adopts Kubernetes API resource convention.

Releases of the model are versioned according to Semantic Versioning 2.0 and described in OAM release page. Implementations of the model are required to specify which version they implement.

Changes to the API objects

Changes to the API objects in this model follows on compatibility and incompatible api changes defined in Kubernetes API resource convention. It doesn't couple with release version of the model.

Changes to the change process (e.g. governance model, review/approve process etc) itself are not currently versioned but may be independently versioned in the future.
