Service Orchestrator Release Notes
==================================

The SO provides the highest level of service orchestration in the ONAP architecture. 

Version: 1.1.1
--------------

:Release Date: 2017-11-16


**New Features**

The SO provides the highest level of service orchestration in the ONAP architecture.
It executes end-to-end service activities by processing workflows and business logic and coordinating other ONAP and external component activities. 

The orchestration engine is a reusable service. Any component of the architecture can execute SO orchestration capabilities. 

* Orchestration services will process workflows based on defined models and recipe. 
* The service model maintains consistency and reusability across all orchestration activities and ensures consistent methods, structure and version of the workflow execution environment.
* Orchestration processes interact with other platform components or external systems via standard and well-defined APIs.
