In Part I we discuss accumulating experimental evidence related to the structure and origin of the bosonic spectral function in high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) cuprates at and near optimal doping. Some global properties of the spectral function, such as number and positions of peaks, are extracted by combining optics, neutron scattering, ARPES and tunnelling measurements. These methods give convincing evidence for strong electron-phonon interaction (EPI) with the coupling constant between 1-3 in cuprates near optimal doping. Here we clarify how these results are in favor of the Eliashberg-like theory for HTSC cuprates near optimal doping. In Part II we discuss some theoretical ingredients - such as strong EPI, strong correlations - which are necessary to explain the experimental results related to the mechanism of d-wave pairing in optimally doped cuprates. These comprise the Migdal-Eliashberg theory for EPI in strongly correlated systems which give rise to the forward scattering peak. The latter is further supported by the weakly screened Madelung interaction in the ionic-metallic structure of layered cuprates. In this approach EPI is responsible for the strength of pairing while the residual Coulomb interaction (by including spin fluctuations) triggers the d-wave pairing.
