Preferred solution is to send TOSCA in the body. Meaning we could reuse the parsing code which is already present and provide it to the participant. 

3.2.4: Instantiation Participant API

*Suggestion was to put JAVA API code in this section for the participant talking to DmaaP. TBD

3.3: Monitoring

In this case it refers to monitoring the data that participants will provide to DmaaP. Participants will send events to DmaaP which will be monitored by the CL_Monitoring_Service. The data provided should include a reference id to the control loops that are instantiated on the participant, as well as the applications that have been instantiated as a part of that control loop for that participant. Data should also include the time that the application has started, state of it (running/terminated) and any other critical information which would help to determine the health of an instantiated control loop and its components. Idea is for the participant to provide events every certain period of time, similar to a health-check, in order to provide consistent monitoring.

4.4.1 Upgrade

Performing a hot upgrade of the Control Loop at run time as well as handling an upgrade of the software in one or more of the participants in an Control Loop is a particularly challenging issue because upgrading must handle the following cases without tearing down the Control Loop:
