+Disco - Massive data, Minimal code
+==================================
+
+Disco is an implementation of the `Map-Reduce framework
+<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MapReduce>`_ for distributed computing. As
+the original framework, which was publicized by Google, Disco supports
+parallel computations over large data sets on unreliable cluster of
+computers. This makes it a perfect tool for analyzing and processing large
+datasets without having to bother about difficult technical questions
+related to distributed computing, such as communication protocols, load
+balancing, locking, job scheduling or fault tolerance, which are taken
+care by Disco.
+
+See `discoproject.org <http://discoproject.org>`_ for more information.
