-The following is a monorepo of packages for the Thousand Validators Program. Each package is a microservice that can be run independently or together with other microservices. 
+The following is a monorepo of packages for the Thousand Validators Program.  
 
 The monorepo is managed using Yarn workspaces, and contains the following packages:
 - [`packages/common`](packages/common): A package containing common code shared across all microservices.
 - [`packages/core`](packages/core): A package containing the core logic of the Thousand Validators Program.
 - [`packages/gateway`](packages/gateway): A package for an API gateway that exposes the backend with a REST API.
 - [`packages/telemetry`](packages/telemetry): A package for a telemetry client that monitors uptime
-- [`packages/worker`](packages/worker): A packages for job queue workers that perform background tasks.

 ## Installation & Setup
 
 ### Instances
 
 There's a few ways of running the backend with docker containers, either in kubernetes, or with docker-compose.
 
-There is the `Current / Monolith` way of running instances, and the `Microservice` way of running instances.

-`Current / Monolith` Architecture:

+Current architecture:
 
-
-`Microservice` Architecture:

-![Microservice Architecture](./docs/architecture/microservice.png)
+![Current Architecture](./docs/architecture/monolith.png)
 
 The following are different ways of running in either `Current` or `Microservice` architecture with either `Kusama` or `Polkadot`, and either `Development` or `Production`:
 
 - `Kusama Current`
   - Running as a monolith with production values
 - `Polkadot Current`
   - Running as a monolith with production values
-- `Kusama Microservice`
-  - Running as microservices with production values
-- `Polkadot Microservice`
-  - Running as microservices with production values
-- `Polkadot Current Dev`
-  - Running as a monolith with development values
-- `Kusama Current Dev`
-  - Running as a monolith with development values
-- `Kusama Microservice Dev`
-  - Running as microservices with development values
-- `Polkadot Microservice Dev`
-  - Running as microservices with development values
 
 Each package contains a `Dockerfile`, which is used for running in production,  and `Dockerfile-dev`, which is used for development. The development images will use run with `nodemon` so that each time files is saved/changed it will rebuild the image and restart the container. Any changes for the regular run `Dockerfile` will need a manual rebuilding of the docker image.
