-# MySuperLedger
-MySuperLedger aims to enable SMEs with accounting capability that internet giants such as Alipay, PayPal have.
+# What is MySuperLedger
+MySuperLedger is a database specifically designed for accounting purpose. You can use it to create accounts, create ledgers, 
+do double-entry bookkeeping. Its goal is to equip SMEs with the capability to handle super large accounting volume 
+which usually internet giants such as Alipay, WeChat Pay, PayPal have.
 
-## Why SMEs need accounting feature that big companies have
+## Why SMEs will need to handle large accounting volume that big companies have
 The main reason is I believe the pay-as-you-go payment model will lead to a burst of bookkeeping activities which can easily
 reach the same magnitude of traffic and high-availability requirement that only internet giants have.
 
-The accounting capability will be crucial to the success of SMEs that rely on the pay-as-you-go model. However they usually 
-don't have sufficient resources to develop their own accounting software, and existing accounting softwares 
-cannot meet these requirements.

+these non-functional requirements, i.e., high traffic volume, 7x24 available, zero data loss, 100% auditable.
 
 ## Why I can do this
 I designed and led the development of the financial accounting system for eBay management payment. The system can handle 1 million transactions
-per second and easily scale out to support even higher throughput. It's also high available, 99.999% available in over two years, 
-that's 7-minutes downtime, a big part of which was caused by mis-operation. Besides, the system can guarantee no data loss, which is
-also a must-have requirement on accounting system. Last but not least, it's 100% audit-able, it will not only tell you the 
+per second and can easily scale out to support even larger volume. It is also high available, 99.999% available in over two years, 
+that's 7-minutes downtime, it could get more 9s if that mis-operation didn't happen. Thirdly, the system can guarantee no data loss, which is
+also a must-have requirement on financial accounting system. Last but not least, it's 100% audit-able, it will not only tell you the 
 account's latest balance, but also evey transaction that leads to it.
 
-Here're two articles I wrote about the system.
