+
+
+1. Add [opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud/latest/docs) to your `required_providers`.
+
+.. code-block::
+
+    # provider.tf
+    terraform {
+       required_providers {
+          opentelekomcloud = {
+             source = "opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud"
+             version = ">= 1.23.2"

+Introduction
+============
+
+Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you build, change, and version cloud and on-prem resources safely and efficiently.
+
+A provider in Terraform is a plugin that enables interaction with an API. This includes Cloud providers and Software-as-a-service providers.
+
+The Open Telekom Cloud provider is used to interact with the many resources supported by OpenTelekomCloud. It's open-source project hosted at Github repository https://github.com/opentelekomcloud/terraform-provider-opentelekomcloud.

+================
+Process Overview
+================
+
+Open Telekom Cloud Terraform Provider is developed by Ecosystem squad and it's open-sourced on Github at https://github.com/opentelekomcloud/terraform-provider-opentelekomcloud/
+
+Issues or new feature requests are addressed by filing an issue on the Github repository under https://github.com/opentelekomcloud/terraform-provider-opentelekomcloud/issues
+
+The following prerequisites must be met in case of new demands:
+
+ - Service or service feature must be released on PROD environment
+ - Documentation for service or service feature must be released on public HelpCenter portal
+ - Functional testing must be completed by QA engineer in the service squad
+ - Regression testing must exist and reports must be available
+
+Once the prerequistes are met and issue is created on github repository, ecosystem squad needs several days or weeks based on the complexity of the new demand to accomplish the task.
+
+To avoid delays caused by not enough resources, the new demands should be identified and addressed upfront during PIP planning by the service squads or product management.
+
+The accomplished demands result in new OTC Terraform provider release available at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud/latest. The release notes describe the changes at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud/latest
