Open Application Model (OAM).
Open Application Model
Open Application Model (OAM) is a set of standard yet higher level abstractions for modeling cloud native applications on top of today's hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Focused on application rather than container or orchestrator, Open Application Model brings modular, extensible, and portable design for defining application deployment with higher level API. This is the key to enable simple, consistent yet robust application delivery across hybrid environments including Kubernetes, cloud, or even IoT devices.
Introduction
"Developers think in terms of application architecture, not of infrastructure."
Why Open Application Model?
In today's hybrid deployment environments, delivering applications without application context is hard:
In Open Application Model, we propose an app-centric approach instead:
The design of Open Application Model is driven by KubeVela project - a modern application deployment platform that intends to make delivering and managing applications across today's hybrid, multi-cloud environments easier and faster.
Learn the Model
The model is maintained as a set of versioned API documentations as shown below.
