-== Concept: Policy
-
-The __Policy__ concept defines a policy in APEX.
-The definition is rather straightforward.
-A policy is made up of a set of states with the flavor of the policy determining the structure of the policy states and the first state defining what state in the policy executes first.
-__Policy__ concepts are keyed with an `ArtifactKey` key.
-
-The __PolicyFlavour__ of a __Policy__ concept specifies the structure that will be used for the states in the policy.
-A number of commonly used policy patterns are supported as APEX policy flavors.
-The standard policy flavors are:
-
-* The __MEDA__ flavor supports policies written to the link:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/282576518_Dynamically_Adaptive_Policies_for_Dynamically_Adaptive_Telecommunications_Networks[MEDA policy pattern] and require a sequence of four states: namely __Match__, __Establish__, __Decide__ and __Act__.
-* The __OODA__ flavor supports policies written to the link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OODA_loop[OODA loop pattern] and require a sequence of four states: namely __Observe__, __Orient__, __Decide__ and __Act__.
-* The __ECA__ flavor supports policies written to the link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_condition_action[ECA active rule pattern] and require a sequence of three states: namely __Event__, __Condition__ and __Action__
-* The __XACML__ flavor supports policies written in link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XACML[XACML] and require a single state: namely __XACML__
-* The __FREEFORM__ flavor supports policies written in an arbitrary style.
- A user can define a __FREEFORM__ policy as an arbitrarily long chain of states.
-
-The __FirstState__ field of a __Policy__ definition is the starting point for execution of a policy.
-Therefore, the trigger event of the state referenced in the __FirstState__ field is also the trigger event for the entire policy.
