 # ScalarDB
 
-ScalarDB is a universal transaction manager that achieves:
-- database/storage-agnostic ACID transactions in a scalable manner even if an underlying database or storage is not ACID-compliant.
-- multi-storage/database/service ACID transactions that can span multiple (possibly different) databases, storages, and services.
+ScalarDB is a cross-database HTAP engine. It achieves ACID transactions and real-time analytics across diverse databases to simplify the complexity of managing multiple databases.
 
 ## Install
+
 The library is available on [maven central repository](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.scalar-labs/scalardb).
 You can install it in your application using your build tool such as Gradle and Maven.
