 # ONAP ccsdk-oran A1 Policy Management Service
 
-The A1 Policy Management Service provides a REST API for management of policies.
-It provides support for:
- -Supervision of clients (R-APPs) to eliminate stray policies in case of failure
- -Consistency monitoring of the SMO view of policies and the actual situation in the RICs
- -Consistency monitoring of RIC capabilities (policy types)
- -Policy configuration. This includes:
-  -One REST API towards all RICs in the network
-  -Query functions that can find all policies in a RIC, all policies owned by a service (R-APP),
-   all policies of a type etc.
-  -Maps O1 resources (ManagedElement) as defined in O1 to the controlling RIC
+The A1 Policy Management Service is a micro service which maintains a transient repository of:
+  - All A1 policies instances in the network. Each policy is targeted to a near-RT-RIC instance and is owned by a 'service' (or 'rApp').
+  - All near-RT-RICs in the network.
+  - All Policy types supported by each near-RT-RIC.
+
+The service provides :
+  - Unified REST API for managing A1 Policies in all near-RT-RICs.
+  - Synchronized view of A1 Policy instances for each rApp/Client
+  - Synchronized view of A1 Policy instances in each near-RT-RIC
+  - Synchronized view of A1 Policy types supported by each near-RT-RIC
+  - Lookup service to find the near-RT-RIC to control resources in the RAN as defined in  O1 (e.g. which near-RT-RIC should be accessed to control a certain CU or DU, which in turn controls a certain cell).
+  - Monitors all near-RT-RICs and maintains data consistency  – e.g. recovery from near-RT-RIC restarts
+  - Support for different Southbound APIs to the near-RT-RICs (different versions of the A1-P application protocol and other similar APIs).
+  - HTTPS can be configured to use a supplied certificate/private key and to validate peers towards a list of trusted CAs/certs.
+  - HTTP proxy support for tunneling HTTP/HTTPS connections.
+  - Fine-grained access-control - with new optional callouts to an external auth function
