+## Introduction
+
+This folder contains datamodels for openmdm in the atfx format.
+
+## Model files
+
+There are several types of atfx files here:
+
+mdm_module_*: these are partial datamodels (moduls), meant as building blocks.
+mdm_complete_application_model: a complete application model consisting of all necessary moduls.
+mdm_api_application_model: a basic application model for using the mdm api
+mdm_minimum_ods_application_model_500: an application model focusing on the central ods elements. Not sufficient for the API.
+mdm_minimum_ods_application_model_with_templates_500: an application model focusing on the central ods elements, but also with the mdm template elements.
+
+## Setting up an Oracle database with ascoba
+
+Ascoba is a tool which comes with HighQSoft's Avalon, so you need an appropriate license to use it. We assume in this section
+that you have an Avalon with an appropriate license available.
+
+1. Choose if you want to start with a full model with all extensions (mdm_complete_application_model) or a model which just supports the mdm api (mdm_api_application_model).
+If you choose the latter, be aware that ascoba doesn't directly support extension of models via atfx files. If you need extensions you could add the contents of the
+coresponding *module* files by hand using the extendmodel tool, or use something like Audi's odscompare, if you have that available.
+
+2. Set up an empty Oracle instance. Grant your instance user at least the following rights:
+grant create session, create table, create sequence to xxx
+
+2. Install the Avalon. For readability, we assume in this documentatiom, that you use the layout as described in the dockerfile under the Setup Tools
+directory in this project. If you want to use the such generated docker Image directly, you may connect to it using
+docker run --net=host -ti -v /path/to/datamodels:/tmp/datamodels avalon /bin/bash
+to get a shell and to make this directory accessible under /tmp/datamodels.
+
+3. connect to the empty oracle instance, e.g. via sqlplus xxx/password@dbname. Run the SQL-script provided by your Avalon distribution in $ATHOS_ROOT/etc/mme1_ora.sql
+ This should create the necessary ods meta tables.
+
+4. edit the ascoba.ini from the ascoba subdirectory at the marked locations.
+
+5. Point the environment variable ASCOBA_INI to your modified ascoba.ini by running
+ export ASCOBA_INI=/tmp/datamodels/ascoba_import.ini
+
+5. run
+ ascoba verbose select "*" where {"*" eq "*"} using randomstring
+
+6. run
+ UpdateStorage-12_1 USERNAME PASSWORD DATABASENAME sequence
+
+7. if there were no errors, you may now start your ods server.
+
+
+## Setting up an Oracle database with odscompare
+If you have Audi's ODSCompare available, you may also set up your database using that tool. As that tool is to our knowledge currently not publicly available
+we don't provide a detailed step by step description through the process. Please see the ODSCompare documentation for help.
