+VID Architecture
+=================
+VID provides a well-structured organization of infrastructure deployment, 
+instantiation and change-management operations used by Operations to derive orchestrations and change-management.
+
+
+Scope
+------
+-  Invoke instantiation of a Service and all of its sub-components (e.g.
+   VNF/VF, VNFC/VFC, Modules, Deployment Flavor, etc).
+-  Invoke instantiation and creation of cloud logical environment (e.g.
+   tenants).
+-  Integration with Operations ticketing system for instantiation and
+   change-management ordering requests.
+-  Instantiation
+
+   -  Instantiation modes.
+
+      -  Macro orchestration.
+      -  A la carte orchestration.
+
+   -  Choose the target instantiation environment (e.g. multi-clouds,
+      testing environment, etc.).
+
+      -  Check the availability of already-created and reserved cloud
+         resources.
+      -  Invoke the creations of cloud resources.
+
+   -  Customize Services and VNF/VF to fit a current instantiation.
+
+      -  Based on SDC Design specific assignments.
+
+   -  Feedback on the instantiation process according to the instantiation
+      workflow.
+
+      -  Ability to invoke maintenance operations on an unsuccessful
+         instantiation.
+
+-   Change-management
+
+   -  Integration with inventory (A&AI) to retrieve currently deployed
+      Services.
+   -  Agnostic and specific change-management workflows derived from SDC
+      Service and VNF/VF models.
+   -  
+
+      -  Invoke a CM for a given Service and VNF/VF.
+      -  Invoke a CM for monitoring-templates (MTs: control-loops).
+      -  Invoke a CM for policy changes
+      -  Invoke a CM for license changes
+      -  etc..
+
+   -  Ability to perform operations on a workflow (e.g. actions as stop, start,
+      restart, resume).
+   -  Ability to schedule a workflow
+
+      -  notify
+      -  automatic instantiation upon reaching the scheduled time.
+
+-  Invoke security, load and performance tests on a given Service and
+   VNF/VF.
+-  Collaboration
+
+   -  Project/Admin dashboard (includes user management, VNF/VF and
+      Services relevant to the project).
+
+-   Interfaces:
+
+   -  SDC - get models
+   -  A&AI - get current deployment (inventory)
+   -  MSO - invoke instantiation and change-management.
+   -  BYO Scheduler - set/get schedule
