+openprocurement.edge
+====================
 
-OpenProcurement is initiative to develop software
-powering tenders database and reverse auction.
+**openprocurement.edge** enables synchronization with the Central database that is one of the main components of *OpenProcurement*, an open source software toolkit, implemented in *ProZorro, ProZorro.sale, Rialto, MTender* e-procurement systems.
+
+*OpenProcurement* contains a Central database (CDB) and an API (REST-ful interface based on the JSON notation) via which specialized commercial web platforms can interact with CDB. The openprocurement.edge package enables storage of a personal up-to-date copy of public data from the CDB, being an analogue of public access point (with the same GET request methods available as for a public point), and provides data about any lag compared to the CDB.
