+# Release Notes: Satisfying-Cactus
+
+The Satisfying-Cactus (5.0) release includes R-CORD, E-CORD and M-CORD
+profiles. Detailed information about these profiles can be found in
+the [Service Profile Guide](../service-profiles.md). The following
+summarizes the new features.
+
+## Platform and Build System
+
+* Added support for dynamically loading new services and service profiles into
+a running system. R-CORD and E-CORD services converted to use new
+dynamic loading mechanism, but M-CORD still uses `corebuilder`.
+
+* Refactored build to isolate profile-specific information (e.g., models,
+TOSCA templates). R-CORD, M-CORD, and E-CORD converted to use
+refactoring.
+
+* Added support for logging and diagnostics. See the
+[Logging and Diagnostics](../operate/elk_stack.md) section of the
+guide for more information.
+
+* Added new scenarios to build:
+
+ * `preppedpod`: Installs a CORD POD without MaaS on pre-prepared systems,
+ which can run the R-CORD test suite.
+
+ * `controlpod`: Installs XOS and ONOS without VNF support. Runs on Ubuntu
+16.04 in preparation for updating the entire CORD platform.
+
+ * `controlkube`: Preliminary support for running XOS on Kubernetes, in preparation
+ for greater functionality in the next release.
+
+* Preliminary integration of Kubernetes into CORD (pre-alpha):
+
+ * Manages XOS containers
+
+ * Works with `controlkube` Scenario
+
+* Removed old TOSCA Engine.
