 PyAMS application architecture
 ==============================
 
-.. toctree::
-   :maxdepth: 2
+PyAMS applications are built on a small set of prerequisites and external components which *can* or, for some of them,
+*must* be included, the minimal configuration is:
+
+* a mandatory shared ZODB;  :ref:`zodb` chapter
+
+* a Redis or Memcached server, to handle cache and sessions;
+  :ref:`pyams_cache` chapter
+
+
+Quickstart deployment
+---------------------
+
+Overview of the environement system after the :ref:`quickstart` installation.
+It's a very lite configuration, with only mandatory resourses.
+Obviously you can extend this system by connecting more resources like is described in the :ref:`config` chapiter

+
+* an Elasticsearch index, used to handle quick and optimized searching.
