 ### What is Citus?
 
 * **Open-source** PostgreSQL extension (not a fork)
-* **Scalable** across multiple hosts through sharding and replication
+* **Scalable** across multiple machines through sharding and replication
 * **Distributed** engine for query parallelization
-* **Highly available** in the face of host failures
+* **Database** designed to scale multi-tenant applications
 
-Citus horizontally scales PostgreSQL across commodity servers using
-sharding and replication. Its query engine parallelizes incoming
-SQL queries across these servers to enable real-time responses on
-large datasets.
+Citus is a distributed database that scales across commodity servers using transparent
+sharding and replication. Citus extends the underlying database rather than forking it,
+giving developers and enterprises the power and familiarity of a relational database. As
+an extension, Citus supports new PostgreSQL releases, and allows you to benefit from new
+features while maintaining compatibility with existing PostgreSQL tools.

-Note that Citus supports many (but not all) SQL commands; see the
-[FAQ][faq] for more details.
+Citus serves many use cases. Two common ones are:
 
-Common Use-Cases:
-* Powering real-time analytic dashboards
-* Exploratory queries on events as they happen
-* Large dataset archival and reporting
-* Session analytics (funnels, segmentation, and cohorts)
+1. [Multi-tenant database](https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2016/10/03/designing-your-saas-database-for-high-scalability):
+Most B2B applications already have the notion of a tenant /
+customer / account built into their data model. Citus allows you to scale out your
+transactional relational database to 100K+ tenants with minimal changes to your
+application.
+
+2. [Real-time analytics](https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2017/01/27/getting-started-with-github-events-data):
+Citus enables ingesting large volumes of data and running
+analytical queries on that data in human real-time. Example applications include analytic
+dashboards with subsecond response times and exploratory queries on unfolding events.
