-1. Introduction
-
-  XOS is comprised of 3 core services:
-  
-  * A database backend (postgres)
-  * A webserver front end (django)
-  * A synchronizer daemon that interacts with the openstack backend.
-
-  We have created separate dockerfiles for each of these services, making it easier to
-  build the services independently and also deploy and run them in isolated environments. 
-
-2. Database Container
-  
-  To build and run the database container:
-  
-  $ cd postgres; make build && make run;
-
-3. XOS container
-  
-  To build and run the xos webserver container:
-
-  $ cd xos; make build && make run;
-
-  You should now be able to access the login page by visiting http://localhost:80 and
-  log in using the default paadmin account. It may be helpful to bootstrap xos with 
-  some sample data; deployment, controllers, sites, slices, etc. You can get started by
-  loading tosca configuration for the opencloud demo dataset:
-
-  $ cd xos; make runtosca;
-
-  Or you can create you own tosca configuraton file and customize the dataset however you
-  want. You can all load your own tosca configuration by setting the TOSCA_CONFIG_PATH 
-  environment variable before executing the make command:
-
-  $ cd xos; TOSCA_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/tosca/config.yaml make runtosca
-
-4. Synchronizer container
-
-  The syncornonizer shares many of the same dependencies as the xos container. The synchronizer 
-  container takes advantage of this by building itself on top of the xos image. This means
-  you must build the xos image before building the synchronizer image. The XOS and 
-  synchronizer containers can run on separate hosts, but you must build the xos image
-  on the host that you plan to run the synchronizer container. Assuming you have already 
-  built the xos container, executing the following will build and run the synchronizer container:
-
-  $ cd synchronizer; make build && make run
