    • Product
    • Resource

Usage

APP-C vs APPC: both are allowed in Release 1 (consistent with SDN-C/SDNC)

ingredients: avoid

life cycle vs lifecycle or life-cycle: prefer two words "life cycle", as recommended here, and because OpenECOMP contains a Life Cycle Management (LCM) functionality. Note that Reference documents, such as <<DocRef: "Common Requirements for Virtual Network Functions">> show both forms. 

...

recipe: use alternatives like "workflow and configuration information", when related to a Resource, Service, Product, or Offer. However, within the context of the server configuration system Chef, a recipe is the most fundamental configuration element.

run-time vs. execution-time (adjective): prefer run-time. Example: "run-time logging of events"

run time:(noun) Example: "logging of events at run time"

SDN-C vs SDNC: both are allowed in Release 1 (consistent with APPC/APP-C)

"secret sauce": replace with a phrase like "value-added functionality" or "vendor-specific algorithms".
