The technical measures in the JCPOA limit Iran's nuclear program to peaceful uses, as allowed by the Nonproliferation Treaty, and enhance transparency with oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Sanctions are lifted simultaneously with further actions in 8 years, including the possible opening of commercial nuclear trade between the US and Iran.
This is a plan of action based on a set of measures overseen by an international agency (the IAEA). It is not based on trust, like a treaty would be. It does, however, provide steps in the right direction to form a better relationship between Iran and the US, EU, and the UN Security Council. The politics are complicated, and won't be easily resolved by an agreement. However, this plan of action is feasible because both sides agreed to it and it contains tangible technical measures than can be implemented and monitored.
