What is Cloud Application Management for Platforms mean?

Cloud Application Management for Platforms (CAMP) is a specification for managing applications in the context of a platform as a service (PaaS) system. CAMP is designed to address the needs of a high-level PaaS system; one in which the consumer (generally a developer or application administrator) provides application artifacts (code, data, graphics, etc.) and specifies which provider-supplied services are required to realize these artifacts as an application. The details of the infrastructure (compute, storage, and networking) used to support these services are hidden from the consumer by the provider of the PaaS system.

CAMP defines the following:

A domain-specific language that describes the artifacts that make up an application, the services that are required to execute or utilize those artifacts, and the relationship of the artifacts to those services.A resource model for representing applications and their constituent components as well the services used by those components along with runtime status information, configuration information, and metadata that describes the PaaS system.A RESTful protocol for manipulating these resources and, by so doing, changing the state of the underlying application. reference
