 ## Components
 
-The archive system is a constellation of subsystems each performing a critical
-task.
+This system has several subsystems which have their own subsystems. The two primary systems are:
 
-* **amygdala** is the core of the nervous system for messaging and making 
-decisions about those messages
-* **archiveIface** is the web-based user interface for starting downloads and 
-reprocessing
-* the **data-fetcher** is responsible for retrieving archive files from NGAS
-* **deployment** is our system for putting this system online
-* **logback-utils** and **logback-servlet-utils** are provide logging services
-* **mail** is a templated mailing system
-* **messaging** provides messaging services the other components rely on
-* **Model** provides Java models for the entities in the system
-* **archive-solr** provides Solr indexing services for fast lookups
-* **NGRH-ALMA-10_8** is the request handler and provides users with insight into
-what step their download or reprocessing request is on
-* **opencadc** and **tap-server** provide [Virtual Observatory](http://ivoa.net/) 
-services
-* **pipeline-manifest-lib** and **ppr-schema** generate and parse reprocessing 
-requests and their results
-* **schema** is the database schema used by the archive system
-* **pyat** is the Python interface to the archive as well as the ingestion 
-system
-* **workflow-all** provides cluster-based workflows for downloads, imaging and 
-calibration
+* The **archive** which stores data products
+* The **workspace** system which allows users to retrieve data products and transform them into other products
 
-## How are requests processed?
-
-To give a quick view of how the system works, let's walk through a single request.
-
-1. The user arrives at the **archiveIface** at [archive-new.nrao.edu](http://archive-new.nrao.edu) 
-wanting to fetch some data
-2. The user searches for a particular observation, such as 13B-014.
-
-    Behind the scenes, the **archiveIface** makes a request to a Solr index, 
-    built by **archive-solr**, to find observations for 13B-014, which it
-    then presents to the user.
-3. The user selects a data set and chooses download and reprocessing options
-provided by **archiveIface** and clicks either Download or Reprocess.
-4. **archiveIface** sends the request to **NGRH-ALMA-10_8** (the request handler).
-5. **NGRH-ALMA-10_8** sends a workflow-start message to **workflow-all**.
-6. **workflow-all** runs a sequence of workflow steps:
-    1. **ppr-schema** is used to generate pipeline processing request (PPR) for 
-    the user's request
-    2. **data-fetcher** is used in the cluster to obtain the user's data
-    3. Other workflow tasks and jobs are used to run CASA and obtain the results
-    4. Finally, a message is sent back to **NGRH-ALMA-10_8* with the results
-7. **NGRH-ALMA-10_8** shows the user their download is complete and how to obtain
-the files.
-
-All of the work is coordinated using AMQP messaging (via **messaging**) and the 
-database (defined by **schema**).
+The pieces are broken down into applications (both web-based and command-line), RESTful services and shared libraries.
