+Key Updates
+===========
+
+* OPA-PDP engine added
+
+ Added the ONAP OPA Policy PDP Engine. OPA-PDP leverages OPA, `OPA <https://github.com/open-policy-agent/opa>`_,
+ to support fine-grained policy decisions in the ONAP. The REGO 1.0 Standard serves as the policy language for access control decisions.
+ The ONAP OPA PDP translates TOSCA Compliant Policies into the Rego language, loads them into the OPA engine, exposes a decision api for delivering decisions.
+ Read more about OPA-PDP `here. <https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-policy-parent/en/latest/opa/OPA-pdp-engine.html>`_
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5022 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5022>`_ - R15: Steps to add OPA policy engine
+
+
+* Improvements to CLAMP Automation Composition Management (ACM)
+
+ Added support for pagination in order to allow for composition instance's endpoints to handle up to 200k compositions. Updated message handling architecture to change the implementation of synchronization events,
+ this is to avoid conflicts where handling incoming messages would try to access the database simultaneously. Prepare events now support stage property to control the order of execution of elements from ACM-R.
+ Added a health check for Kafka in the intermediary module to avoid timing issues with participant starting before Kafka or Kafka topics.
+ Added a new parameter “maxOperationWaitMs“ for operations in composition definition and instances. Sensitive fields in the instance properties are now encrypted before being stored in the database.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5182 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5182>`_ - R16: Improvements Specific to Clamp
+
+* MariaDB removed from Policy Framework
+
+ Starting in Paris release, Maria-db will no longer be supported in the Policy Framework.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5196 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5196>`_ - Remove Mariadb dependency from Policy Framework
+
+* API Improvements
+
+ API now supports multiple pre-deployed policies, previously when adding a policy to the pre-deploy list, only the last listed policy was saved to the database.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5297 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5297>`_ - API doesn't handle more than one predeploy policy

+Key Updates
+===========
+
+* Improvements to CLAMP Automation Composition Management (ACM)
+
+ CLAMP ACM is improved with various new capabilities in Oslo release. High availability is now supported in ACM,
+ this ensures minimal downtime of the application in the event of failures by distributing workloads across redundant systems.
+ Elements can now be added and removed in ACM migration, which allows the user to migrate the existing software system to a newer system with a wider range of extended capabilities.
+ Migration can now be performed in stages, this feature allows the migration of instances in complex systems where the workflow invokes the same element for multiple operations.
+ Prepare, review, and migrate-precheck APIs added to ACM, adding advanced capabilities for the user to query and understand the present runtime state of the system before triggering
+ a new operation in ACM.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5012 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5012>`_ - R15: Improvements specific to Clamp
+
+
+* Improvements to Drools-PDP and Drools-Applications
+
+ Drools-PDP is improved with various changes in Oslo release. PostgreSQL Databse is now supported in Drools-PDP. Drools can now be used with both mariadb and postgres databases
+ with the removal of mariadb dependency from the code.
+ Drools-PDP is now re-enabled in OOM. Apache Kafka is now supported in Drools-PDP, specifically the SASL authentication mechanism required by oom.
+ Fixed Drools-PDP CSIT failures.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-5016 <https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/POLICY-5016>`_ - R15: Improvements specific to drools-pdp and drools-applications
+
+
+* Making charts compliant with Kyverno Policy
+
+ Added SecurityContext settings for "production" readiness in respect to security policies.
