+
+[Arvados](https://arvados.org) is an open source platform for
+managing, processing, and sharing genomic and other large scientific
+and biomedical data. With Arvados, bioinformaticians run and scale
+compute-intensive workflows, developers create biomedical
+applications, and IT administrators manage large compute and storage
+resources.
+
+The key components of Arvados are:
+
+* *Keep*: Keep is the Arvados storage system for managing and storing large
+collections of files. Keep combines content addressing and a
+distributed storage architecture resulting in both high reliability
+and high throughput. Every file stored in Keep can be accurately
+verified every time it is retrieved. Keep supports the creation of
+collections as a flexible way to define data sets without having to
+re-organize or needlessly copy data. Keep works on a wide range of
+underlying filesystems and object stores.
+
+* *Crunch*: Crunch is the orchestration system for running [Common Workflow Language](https://www.commonwl.org) workflows. It is
+designed to maintain data provenance and workflow
+reproducibility. Crunch automatically tracks data inputs and outputs
+through Keep and executes workflow processes in Docker containers. In
+a cloud environment, Crunch optimizes costs by scaling compute on demand.
+
+* *Workbench*: The Workbench web application allows users to interactively access
+Arvados functionality. It is especially helpful for querying and
+browsing data, visualizing provenance, and tracking the progress of
+workflows.
+
+* *Command Line tools*: The command line interface (CLI) provides convenient access to Arvados
+functionality in the Arvados platform from the command line.
