OASIS Members and other interested parties,
OASIS is pleased to announce the approval and publication of a new Committee Specification by the members of the TOSCA TC [1].
This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.
The Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) TC provides a language for describing application components and their relationships by means of a service topology, and for specifying the lifecycle management procedures for creation or modification of services using orchestration processes. The combination of topology and orchestration enables not only the automation of deployment but also the automation of the complete service lifecycle management. The TOSCA specification promotes a model-driven approach, whereby information embedded in the model structure (the dependencies, connections, compositions) drives the automated processes.
The prose specifications and related files are available here:

The vote to approve as Committee Specification passed [2], and the document is now available online in the OASIS Library as referenced above.
Our congratulations to the TC on achieving these milestones and our thanks to the reviewers who provided feedback on the specification drafts to help improve the quality of the work.
