<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Hi folks!</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">During the Atlanta Summit there was quite a lot of talks about the Application Lifecycle management and Murano's role in this process. There were several cross-project sessions between Murano, Heat and Solum teams ([1]) at which it was decided that Murano has its own place in the application-management ecosystem and should be able to define custom actions or workflows for its applications, while using Heat and its ALM capabilities as the underlying service. </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">At the same time I had some conversation with potential customers and contributors, who have expressed strong interest in having actions in Murano in this cycle. </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">That's why I've decided to drive this process forward and formalize the spec and requirements for the Actions feature in Murano.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I've created a draft of the spec - please see the etherpad at [2] for details. I'd like some comments and discussion on the spec, and once we all agree on that, I will be happy to find a volunteer eager to implement this during Juno :) </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">BTW, we have a number of blueprints already created on the topic ([3], [4], [5], [6]), but they lack the details and have some problems with terminology ('events' and 'actions' are definitely not the same, while the blueprints mix them). I think we should revisit these BPs and either change them to reflect the updated vision or to mark them as superseded and create more appropriate one. </div>
