10. connect communicate collaborate On demand provisioning of network resources. Recursive delegation of access right over managed resources. Lightweight Abstracted operational model. Decoupled from actual vendor-specific details. Flexible enough to accomodate different designs and orientations Fixed enough so common tools can be build and reused across plugins. – Security – Lifecycle – Monitoring – Deployment and upgrade.
