 <h2>Open extensible architecture</h2>
 
 <p>Above diagram shows, how Apache Stratos core components (Cloud Controller, CEP, Auto Scaler, Stratos Manager which include Artifact distribution Controller and Rest API) integration with IaaS layer, foundation services and dynamic services that are cartridges.</p>
+
+<h2>Why is this architecture so important?</h2>
+
+<p>Cartridge model provide run time extendability to bring any type of cartridges such as language cartridge, framework cartridge, data cartridge ..etc without binding to any specific Operating Systems. This bring polyglot nature for tha PaaS and its is so important, because not to trap with limitation that many PaaS offering has.</p>
+
+<p>Another key advantage of Apache Stratos cartridge model is that it enables to bring even legacy containers and applications into cloud with ease. So, with Apache Stratos, you can cloud enable both existing IT assets as well as the future IT assets that you plan to use or yet to acquire.</p>
+
+<p>Another important architecture design in Apache Stratos is unified communication among all components using message bus and real time event bus. It provide unified interface to integrate with any third party systems or extending to work with existing systems. Also its carefully design to cater heavy traffic via real time event bus (via thrift protocol) and used AMQP for messages which need reliable delivery.</p>
+
+<p>Another important extendability of Apache Stratos is that ability to plugin any IaaS due to the use of apache jclouds API. Which give more freedom to choose your own IaaS vendor, and it also enable to extend multiple IaaS integration, which is important in features like cloud bursting etc.
