+Radio Edge Cloud Remote Installer - Version 1
+=============================================
+The Akraino REC Remote Installer API is a RESTful interface used to trigger a
+deployment of a Radio Edge Cloud cluster from an Akraino Regional Controller.
+
+For version 1 of the API, all endpoints are located under ``/v1/``.
+
+The API runs on a CRUD model; Create (POST), Read (GET), Update (PUT), Delete (DELETE)
+operations may be performed although PUT and DELETE are not currently used.
+Not all operations may be allowed for all objects.
+
+All content provided to the API must be in JSON form (with a Content-Type of
+``application/json``).
+All output provided by the API will be in JSON form (with a Content-Type of
+``application/json``).
+
+At this time there is only the installation API.
