+Models
+========================
+
+SDC supports the onboarding and design of resources and services that adhere to one of a number of models. The following models are included in the default deployment:
+
+**SDC AID**
+
+The `ONAP SDC data model <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/SDC+Data+model>`_ supported widely by ONAP components.
+
+**ETSI SOL001 v2.5.1**
+
+The data model for NFV descriptors standardised by ETSI, `version 2.5.1 <https://docbox.etsi.org/ISG/NFV/Open/Publications_pdf/Specs-Reports/NFV-SOL%20001v2.5.1%20-%20GS%20-%20TOSCA-based%20NFV%20descriptors%20spec.pdf>`_. Limited support exists in ONAP components, but some support is provided in SO SOL003 and SOL005 adapters and ETSI Catalog Manager.
+
+Further models can be added through the :ref:`Supported APIs <offeredapis>` at deployment or runtime.
+Model inheritance is supported though it is expected that the names of the types be unique across the inheritance tree. Resources that are imported or designed to adhere to a particular model can only be used in a service that adheres to the same model.
