Maven Artifacts
```````````````
In addition to docker containers, CCSDK also provides libraries that are intended to be used by
client applications (e.g. APPC, SDNC) as maven dependencies.


ccsdk/parent
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Many CCSDK clients need to be able to inherit settings from third party parent poms provided
by OpenDaylight or springboot, and therefore are unable to use the standard ONAP parent pom.
The CCSDK parent repository provides its own version of parent poms whose contents are consistent
with ONAP standard settings (as defined in oparent), but whose parent is the OpenDaylight or
springboot parent, so that clients can effectively merge both sets of settings.

The following table lists the parent poms provided by CCSDK and the current stable
Frankfurt version of each.
