+Description
+===========
+
+As project Clover's first release, Fraser release includes installation
+and simple validation of foundational upstream projects including Istio,
+fluentd, Jaeger, and Prometheus. Clover Fraser release also provides a
+sample VNF which follows micro-service design pattern, its Kubernetes
+manifest, and an automatic scipt to demonstrate a sample A-B testing use
+case using the sample VNF running on Istio with trace data exposed to
+Jaeger running in istio-system namespace.
+
+What is in Fraser?
+==================
+
+ * a sample micro-service composed VNF
+
+ * logging module: fluentd and elasticsearch Kubernetes manifests,
+   and fluentd installation validation
+
+ * tracing module: jaeger Kubernetes manifest, installation validation,
+   jaegar tracing query tools, module for trace data output to datastore
+
+ * monitoring module: prometheus Kubernetes manifest, installation
+   validation, sample Prometheous query of Istio related metrics
+
+ * Istio route-rules sample yaml and validation tools
+
+ * Test scripts
+
+ * Sample code for an A-B testing demo shown during ONS
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+ * Python modules to validate installation of fluentd, Jaeger, and
+   Prometheus
+
+ * Installation and deployment of a sample VNF
+   - VNF designed and implemented with micro-service design pattern
+   - tested and validated via Istio service mesh tools
+
+ * sample tool to validate Istio route rules:
+   tools/python clover_validate_route_rules.py -s <service name> -t <test id>
+
+ * an example use case: A-B testing:
+   test/fraser_a_b_test.py -t yaml/fraser_a_b_test.yaml -p <tracing port num>
+   *** detail procedure to run sample A-B testing at docs/configguide/...
