+# DCAE Cloudify Manager Chart
+
+This chart is used to deploy a containerized version of
+[Cloudify Manager](http://docs.getcloudify.org/4.3.0/intro/cloudify-manager/),
+the orchestration tool used by DCAE. DCAE uses Cloudify Manager ("CM") to
+deploy the rest of the DCAE platform as well to deploy DCAE monitoring and
+analytics services dynamically, in response to network events such as VNF startups.
+
+Deployment of CM is the first of two steps in deploying DCAE into ONAP. After this chart
+brings up CM, a second chart (the "bootstrap" chart) installs some plugin extensions onto CM
+and uses CM to deploy some DCAE components.
+
+## Prerequisites
+The chart requires one Kubernetes secret to be available in the namespace where it is
+being deployed:
+ - `<namespace_name>-docker-registry-key`, the docker registry secret needed to pull images
+ from the Docker repository. This is the same secret used by other OOM charts.
+
+## DCAE Namespace
+DCAE will use CM deploy a number of containers into the ONAP Kubernetes cluster. In a production
+environment, DCAE's dynamic deployment of monitoring and analytics services could result in dozens
+of containers being launched. This chart allows the configuration, through the `dcae_ns` property
+in the `values.yaml` of a separate namespace used by CM when it needs to deploy containers into
+Kubernetes. If `dcae_ns` is set, this chart will:
+ - create the namespace.
+ - create the Docker registry key secret in the namespace.
+ - create some Kubernetes `Services` (of the `ExternalName` type) to map some addresses from the common namespace into the DCAE namespace.
+
+## Use of Consul
+DCAE uses [Consul](http://consul.io) to store configuration data for DCAE components. In R1, DCAE
+deployed its own Consul cluster. In R2, DCAE will use the Consul server deployed by OOM.
