 # Introduction
 
-ONAP MSO is delivered with **2 Docker containers**, 1 hosting the **database** (MariaDB) and 1 hosting the **JBoss** application server running all ONAP MSO code.
+SO (Service Orchestrator) project is mostly composed of java & groovy code along with camunda BPMN code flow.
 
-Both containers runs on the same machine and can be started with **`docker-compose`**.
+SO consists of following sub-components:
+ - API Handler (*/mso-api-handlers*) set of REST services for incoming requests (northbound clients)
+ - BPMN Execution Engine (*/bpmn*) contains all business logic of service order execution  and interact with AAI, SDNC, requestdb, catalogdb etc. Exposes rest interface for Api Handler
+ - Set of adapters (*/adapters*) adapters that interact with ONAP components (SDNC, VFC, Request DB, Catalog DB) or external components (VNFM, Openstack)
+ - Data Stores: Catalog DB (configuration is here */mso-catalog-db*) to store service and resource models, recipes and workflows
+ - SDC Client and Controller (*/asdc-controller) to receive updated models from SDC and populate Catalog DB
+ - SO Monitoring (*/so-monitoring) service to monitor BPMN workflow execution status
 
-# Compiling MSO
+# Compiling SO
 
-MSO can be compiled with `mvn clean install`. Integration tests are started with the following profile
-`-P with-integration-tests`
+SO can be compiled with `mvn clean install`. By default it executes:
+ - the standard unit tests
+ - the Spring integration tests
+ - javadoc and doclint creation
+ - BUT *does not build the docker images*
 
-**to be edited for rrelease**
-Docker containers are build with the following profile
-`-P docker -Ddocker.buildArg.chef_repo_branch_name=bugfix/external_adress -Ddocker.buildArg.chef_repo_git_username=git -Ddocker.buildArg.chef_repo_address=23.253.149.175/mso -Ddocker.buildArg.chef_repo_git_name=chef-repo`
+Integration tests are started with the following profile `-P with-integration-tests`
+
+You can disable the integration tests by executing: `mvn clean install -DskipTests=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true`
+
+You can disable the javadoc or doclint creation by executing `mvn clean install -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Dadditionalparam=-Xdoclint:none`
+
+# Code Formatting
+
+Your build may fail if you don't follow Code Guidelines. In order to format files run `mvn process-sources -P format`
+
+# Building Docker images
+
+You can build docker images by executing profile "docker": `mvn clean install -P docker`
+
+If you want to build docker images with out executing test and javadoc, then run the below command `mvn clean install -U -DskipTests=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Dadditionalparam=-Xdoclint:none -P docker`

 ### docker-compose
 
-You can use `docker-compose` to start MSO.
-The file is as the root of the directory.
-See `Getting the containers` to pull the images
+You can use docker-compose to start SO. For running docker-compose, you need to checkout docker-config project.
+
+docker-config code is located in a single git repository named *so/docker-config*
+
+To start SO:
+ - `cd docker-config`
+ - set up DOCKER_HOST env variable with your specific host+port i.e. `export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://127.0.0.1:2375`
+ - run helper script `./deploy.sh` (OR `docker-compose up -d`)
+
+You can also run / restart independent docker, like to run bpmn-infra docker, use command `docker-compose up -d bpmn-infra`
+
+**NOTE**: container *onap/so/vnfm-adapter* is not started via docker-compose script
 
 ### Heat template
 
-A heat template that can be used on RackSpace to spin up the MSO Host VM and run docker-compose is currently being built by the Demo Team.

-JBoss Wildly provides administrative functions through the application [server console](https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY10/Admin+Guide#AdminGuide-Accessingthewebconsole].
+Some of SO components (Api Handler, SO monitoring) use Embedded Tomcat from Spring boot to run application. 
+To monitor the app, Actuator endpoint can be used:
 
-Said console can be used to have a look at the status of MSO. It is providing details on deployed artifacts and gives a remote access to the main server log file
+ - /manage/health - Shows application health information
+ - /manage/info - Displays arbitrary application info
 
-The UI can be accessed trough http://containerHostName:9990/
+### SO Camunda Cockpit console
 
-The configuration preloads a default user (admin) with the standard `placeholder` password.
+SO orchestration processes can be monitored with the [Camunda Engine cockpit UI](https://camunda.org/features/cockpit/). It gives an insight about the available processes, allows to trigger them manually and provides monitoring of the currently running processes
 
-The configuration of JBoss should not be touched. But it is possible to look at the two following sections for insights on the MSO health :
-
-![deployments or runtime](http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/332403image2016112412225.png)
-
-Deployments shows what is deployed and running on the application server, you should see the following once MSO is up and running (Actual names of the War files may differ but their numbers and general format should be the same)

-Runtime can be used to have a look a the main server log files, see JVM status and parameters, environment settings etc,...

-You can encrypt the JBoss user with the following command `echo -n 'LOGIN:ApplicationRealm:PASSWORD' |openssl dgst -md5` and replace the line corresponding to this user in /opt/jboss/standalone/configuration/application-users.properties
+You can find default users there for specific so component.
+**Note** that these default users should be changed.
 
 You can replace the authentication in the environment by the value returned by the following API `GET on http://c1.vm1.mso.simpledemo.onap.org:8080/asdc/properties/encrypt/{value}/{cryptKey}` where {value} is the string login:password and cryptKey (also defined in the environment) is the key to use to encrypt the credentials
 
-Exemple of credentials you could change:
-- BPELClient: if you change this credentials, you have to change it in JBoss users AND environment file (+ apply the new config) and be careful to set the same password. In the environment it is the parameter "adaptersPoAuth" under the section "mso-bpmn-urn-config". The cryptKey to use is 07a7159d3bf51a0e53be7a8f89699be7
-- BPMNClient: if you change this credentials, you have to change it in JBoss users AND environment file (+ apply the new config) and be careful to set the same password. In the environment it is the parameter "camundaAuth" under the sections "mso-api-handler-config" AND "mso-api-handler-infra-config". The cryptKey to use is
