+What is ARIA?
+-------------
+
+`ARIA <http://ariatosca.incubator.apache.org/>`__ is a an open-source,
+`TOSCA <https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tosca/>`__-based, lightweight library and CLI for
+orchestration and for consumption by projects building TOSCA-based solutions for resources and
+services orchestration.
+
+ARIA can be utilized by any organization that wants to implement TOSCA-based orchestration in its
+solutions, whether a multi-cloud enterprise application, or an NFV or SDN solution for multiple
+virtual infrastructure managers.

+applications, from template to deployment.
