+Important notes
+===============
+
+This is the OPNFV Bramaputra release that implements the deploy stage of the OPNFV CI pipeline via Apex.
+
+Apex is based on RDO Manager. More information at http://rdoproject.org
+
+Carefully follow the installation-instructions which guide a user on how to deploy OPNFV using Apex installer.
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+Bramaputra release with the Apex deployment toolchain will establish an OPNFV target system
+on a Pharos compliant lab infrastructure. The current definition of an OPNFV target system
+is and OpenStack Liberty version combined with OpenDaylight version: Lithium. The system
+is deployed with OpenStack High Availability (HA) for most OpenStack services. OpenDaylight
+is deployed in non-HA form as HAi support is not availble for OpenDaylight at the time of
+the Bramaputra release. Ceph storage is used as Cinder backend, and is the only supported
+storage for Bramaputra. Ceph is setup as 3 OSDs and 3 Monitors, one OSD+Mon per Controller
+node.
+
+- Documentation is built by Jenkins
+- .iso image is built by Jenkins
+- Jenkins deploys a Bramaputra release with the Apex deployment toolchain baremetal, which includes 3 control+network nodes, and 2 compute nodes.
