 <h3>Disciplined Data Management</h3>
-<p>Apache Object Oriented Data Technology (OODT) is a smart way to integrate and archive your processes, your data, and its metadata. It facilitates the creation, acquisition, and growth of data management and archiving systems. OODT spans disciplines and enables interoperability among data agnostic systems in any field.</p>
+<p>Apache Object Oriented Data Technology (OODT) is a smart way to integrate and archive your processes, your data, and its metadata. 
+It facilitates the generation, processing, management, distribution and analysis of data management, data archiving, and data analytics
+systems allowing for the integration of data, computation, visualization and other components.

+<h3>Distributed and Heterogeneous Data Environments</h3>
+<p>Apache OODT facilitates the integration of highly distributed and heterogeneous data
+intensive systems enabling the integration of different, distributed software systems, metadata
+and data. OODT spans disciplines and enables interoperability among data agnostic
+systems in any field.</p>

 <h3>Reproducible Data Pipelines</h3>
-<p>Haphazard processing pipelines are commonly made up of custom UNIX shell scripts and/or fragile custom written glue 
-code of Java, Python, and Perl. OODT uses structured XML-based capturing of the processing pipeline that can be understood 
-and modified by non-programmers to create, edit, manage and provision workflow and task execution.</p>

+Haphazard processing pipelines are commonly made up of custom UNIX shell scripts and/or
+fragile custom written glue code of Java, Python, and Perl. Apache OODT uses structured
+XML-based capturing of the processing pipeline that can be understood and modified by
+non-programmers to create, edit, manage and provision workflow and task execution. OODT
+also allows for remote execution of jobs on scalable computational infrastructures so that
+computational and data-intensive processing can be integrated into OODT’s data
+processing pipelines using cloud computing and high-performance computing environments.</p>
