 ## About
 
-This study project is part of my master's studies in Computer Science at the [DHBW Center for Advanced Studies](https://www.cas.dhbw.de/) (CAS).
+I started this project as part of my Master's studies in Computer Science at the [DHBW Center for Advanced Studies](https://www.cas.dhbw.de/) (CAS).
+I completed a study project ("half-time thesis") about this topic. I'm currently working on my Master's thesis to evolve the project based on the first iteration.
 
-You can download and read the full thesis belonging to this implementation here: [thesis-controller-sharding](https://github.com/timebertt/thesis-controller-sharding).
-This repository contains the practical part of the thesis: a sample operator using the sharding implementation, a full monitoring setup, and some tools for demonstration and evaluation purposes.

-The controller sharding implementation itself is done generically in [controller-runtime](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime).
-It is currently located in the `sharding` branch of my fork: https://github.com/timebertt/controller-runtime/tree/sharding.
+This repository contains the practical part of the scientific work: the actual sharding implementation, a sample operator using the sharding implementation, a full monitoring setup, and some tools for demonstration and evaluation purposes.

 While webhosting-operator is developed in the same repository, it only serves as an example.
 Sharding support can be implemented in any other controller and programming language as well, so that it works well with the sharding components from this project.
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> The external sharding components are work in progress.
-> While the following steps also deploy the new sharding components, they are not activated for now (no `ClusterRing` object is created).
-> Instead, the existing sharding implementation in controller-runtime embedded in webhosting-operator is used.
+TODO: document dummy shard implementation
