 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +Platform Independent Information expresses meaning, structure, behavior, requirements, or constraints without depending on a particular implementation platform.
 +
 +Platform Independent Information may describe:
 +
 +  * Infrastructure intent
 +  * Required capabilities
 +  * Information structures
 +  * Resource relationships
 +  * Processing behavior
 +  * Security requirements
 +  * Operational constraints
 +  * Applicable [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:b:baseline|Baselines]]
 +  * Applicable [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:acceptance_criteria|Acceptance Criteria]]
 +
 +Platform Independent Information may appear in:
 +
 +  * Conceptual models
 +  * Logical models
 +  * Platform Independent Models
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_blueprint|Infrastructure Blueprints]]
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_configuration|Infrastructure Configurations]]
 +  * Interface specifications
 +  * Policy specifications
 +  * Deployment specifications
 +  * Requirement specifications
 +
 +Platform Independent Information differs from [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:p:platform_specific_information|Platform Specific Information]]:
 +
 +  * Platform Independent Information expresses intent without dependence on a selected implementation platform
 +  * Platform Specific Information expresses implementation details associated with a selected platform
 +
 +A transformation or mapping may use Platform Independent Information to produce Platform Specific Information for a [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:p:provider_implementation|Provider Implementation]].

 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +Platform Independent Information may identify abstract resource types, logical services, required relationships, or required behavior without identifying provider-specific products, identifiers, formats, or interfaces.
 +
 +Platform independence does not mean that the information can be implemented without transformation, mapping, parameterization, or selection of implementation technology.
 +
 +The applicable architecture determines the permitted boundary between Platform Independent Information and Platform Specific Information.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +An Infrastructure Blueprint specifies that an Infrastructure Environment requires compute resources, persistent storage, network connectivity, identity services, and monitoring, without specifying a cloud provider instance type, storage class, network identifier, or service name.
