Note - a separate contribution has since been made on the topic of a root hierarchy. Portions of this contribution therefore need to be updated, but the lower level detail regarding onboarding and platform concepts still need to be discussed.

Classes
RootEntity class
Qualified Name: Common::Root::RootObjectClasses::RootEntity
Description:
This is the top of the ONAP class hierarchy. The purpose of the RootEntity is to define a set of attributes that are common to all entities that derive from it. These properties enable us to name, describe, and identify all objects in the environment.
Applied Stereotypes:
- Experimental
- OpenModelClass
- support: MANDATORY

Represents a user-friendly identifier of an object. It is a (possibly ambiguous) name by which the object is commonly known in some limited scope (such as an organization) and conforms to the naming conventions of the country or culture with which it is associated. It is NOT used as a naming attribute (i.e., to uniquely identify an instance of the object).

Descriptor (EntitySpecification) class
Qualified Name: Common::Root::RootObjectClasses::Descriptor (EntitySpecification)
Description:
This is an abstract base class that is used to define the common characteristics (attributes, constraints, and relationships) of a design time entity.
Parent class: RootEntity
