Instead, refer to both as Keptn Hooks. + +## Motivation + +* Make it simpler for a user to understand the core concepts of Keptn Lifecycle Toolkit + +## Explanation + +Hooks are a fairly standard and well understood software mechanism. So rather than referring to tasks and evaluations - then attempting to explain the difference. + +Instead we start referring to Keptn hooks. Keptn hooks are a way to interject into the lifecycle of a running Keptn process. + +With this description, the explanation becomes easy. There are two possible Keptn hooks: + +- Evaluations +- Tasks + +Keptn hooks can be configured to fire at any of these times: + +- Pre-deployment at a workload level +- Pre-deployment at an application level +- Pre-deployment at a workload level +- Post-deployment at a workload level + +## Internal details + +Note: This KEP does not mean changing anything about the current implementation: KeptnTasks and KeptnEvaluations remain as-is. + +This is simply a way to all agree on how we message and refer to these capabilities. + +Ergo, no additional coding is expected (apart from documentation rewording). + +## Trade-offs and mitigations + + +## Breaking changes + +None + +## Prior art and alternatives + + +## Open questions + +## Future possibilities
