+Domino Overview
+===============
+Domino provides a distribution service for Network Service (NS) and Virtual
+Network Function (VNF) descriptors. It is targeted towards supporting many
+network controllers, service orchestrators, VNF managers, Operation and
+Business Support Systems. Producers of Network Service Descriptors (NSDs)
+and VNF Descriptors (VNFD) use Domino Service as an entry point to publish
+these descriptors. Currently Domino only supports Tosca Simple Profile for
+Network Functions Virtualization (http://docs.oasis-open.org/tosca/tosca-nfv/v1.0/tosca-nfv-v1.0.html) as the data model for NSDs and VNFDs.
+
+Orchestrators, controllers, and managers use Domino service to announce their
+capabilities in the form of policy labels. For instance a Virtual Infrastructure
+Manager (VIM) that is capable of performing an affinity based VNF or VDU
+placement at host machine granularity can specify a label in the form "tosca.policies.Placement.affinity:properties:granularity:hostlevel". When the VIM registers
+with Domino Service and subscribed for that label, Domino views this VIM as a
+candidate location that can host a VNF or VDU requesting affinity based placement
+policy at host machine granularity.
