+NetReady: Network Readiness
+***************************
+
+:Project: NetReady, https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/netready/NetReady
+
+:Abstract: OPNFV provides an infrastructure with different SDN controller
+ options to realize NFV functionality on the platform it builds. As
+ OPNFV uses OpenStack as VIM, we need to analyze the capabilities this
+ component offers us. The networking functionality is provided by a
+ single component called Neutron, which hides the controller under it,
+ let it be Neutron itself or any supported SDN controller. As NFV
+ wasn't taken into consideration at the time when Neutron was designed
+ we are already facing several bottlenecks and architectural
+ shortcomings while implementing our use cases.
+
+ The NetReady project aims at evolving OpenStack networking
+ step-by-step to find the most efficient way to fulfill the
+ requirements of the identified NFV use cases, taking into account the
+ NFV mindset and the capabilities of SDN controllers.
