It listens +to DMaaP to receive messages from the CLAMP runtime and performs operations towards components that +are taking part in control loops. A participant has a Control Loop Element for each control loop in +which it is taking part. + +The implementation of a participant may use a common +:ref:`Participant Intermediary library `, which carries out common +message and state handling for Control Loop Elements in participants. The *ParticipantImpelementation* is the +component specific implementation of a participant, which is specifically developed for each component that +wishes to take part in control loops. + +.. image:: ../../images/participants/participants.png + +The figure above shows participants for various components that may take part in control loops. + +.. note:: The figure above is for illustration. Not all the participants mentioned above + have realizations in ONAP. Some of the participants in the figure above represent + a type of participant. For example, a controller participant would be written for + a specific controller such as CDS and a participant for an existing system would be + written towards that existing system. + +The detailed implementation of the CLAMP Participant ecosystem is described on the following pages: + +.. toctree:: + :maxdepth: 1 + + participant-intermediary + http-participant + k8s-participant + policy-framework-participant + participant-simulator -- cgit
