+Pharos Compliance
+-----------------
+
+The **Pharos Specification** defines a hardware environment for deployment and testing of the
+**Brahmaputra** platform release. The **Pharos Project** is also responsible for defining lab
+capabilities, developing management/usage policies and process; and a support plan for reliable
+access to project and release resources. Community labs are provided as a service by companies and
+are not controlled by Pharos however our objective is to provide easy visibility of all lab
+capabilities and their usage at all-times.
+
+Pharos lab infrastructure has the following objectives:
+- Provides secure, scalable, standard and HA environments for feature development
+- Supports the full Brahmaputra deployment lifecycle (this requires a **bare-metal** environment)
+- Supports functional and performance testing of the Brahmaputra release
+- Provides mechanisms and procedures for secure remote access to Pharos compliant environments for
+ OPNFV community
+
+Deploying Brahmaputra in a Virtualized environment is possible and will be useful, however it does
+not provide a fully featured deployment and realistic test environment for the Brahmaputra release
+of OPNFV.
+
+The high level architecture is outlined in the following diagram:
