+VID Introduction
+=================
+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 target instantiation environment (e.g. multi-clouds,
+ testing environment, etc.).
+
+ - Check availability of already-created and reserved cloud
+ resources.
+ - Invoke the creations of cloud resources.
+
+ - Customize Service and VNF/VF to fit a current instantiation.
+
+ - Based on SDC Design specific assignments.
+
+ - Feedback on 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 current 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 operate 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 test on a given Service and
+ VNF/VF.
+- Collaboration
+
+ - Project/Admin dashboard (include 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 \ No newline at end of file
