OASIS Members and other interested parties, Members of the OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) TC [1] have recently approved a Special Majority Ballot [2] to advance "TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML Version 1.1" as a Candidate OASIS Standard (COS). The COS now enters a 60-day public review period in preparation for a member ballot to consider its approval as an OASIS Standard. TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML Version 1.1 Candidate OASIS Standard 01 04 October 2017 YAML is a human friendly data serialization standard with a syntax much easier to read and edit than XML. The TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML specifies a rendering of TOSCA which aims to provide a more accessible syntax as well as a more concise and incremental expressiveness of the TOSCA DSL (Domain Specific Language) in order to minimize the learning curve and speed the adoption of the use of TOSCA to portably describe cloud applications. The TC received 7 Statements of Use from Ubicity Corp, FastConnect, Vnomic, GigaSpaces, ZTE, University of Pisa, and IBM [3]. Public Review Period: The 60-day public review starts 19 October 2017 at 00:00 UTC and ends 17 December 2017 at 23:59 UTC. This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
