+
+The infrastructure components defined as parts of BaRS are offered for use as a set of centralised services that can support workflows and simplify integration between systems.
+
+There are two elements to this infrastructure:
+
+- **a routing proxy** that enables systems to connect to each other in a scalable way that does not require each side to have pre-configured direct connections
+- a set of enabling **discovery services** that allow BaRS clients to "discover" events, tasks and requests that have been made using BaRS compliant systems from a number of contexts
+
+The routing proxy is the main infrastructure component of BaRS and is hosted and maintained on the centralised NHS API Management platform. It is comprised of several components but, from a developer perspective, it can be thought of as a proxy. All requests are routed through it, it brokers the endpoint for a given service (on behalf of a Sender) and delivers the request to the Receiver. It can support both national and regional scale service service discovery tools. The BaRS Proxy supports scalable, dynamic interoperability and lowers the barrier of entry.  This centralised infrastructure handles the burden of establishing endpoints and connectivity; a Sender need only communicate with the BaRS proxy and a Receiver only needs to accept requests from it.
+
+Components of BaRS centralised infrastructure are as follows:
+
+| Component             | Description  |
+|-----------------------|--------------|
+| BaRS  Proxy API       | Senders direct all requests to this Proxy API for all requests.  |   
+| Endpoint   catalogue  | A component that holds service identifiers and their corresponding physical addresses. It is capable of supporting national and local directory of services or even standalone   endpoints configured within a single system. Providers will be able to manag their endpoints via an API. |
+
+
+
+                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |

 ### Overview of the release
 
-Release 1.10.0 includes a change to the accepted multiple NHS number verification statuses across BaRS, seeing a major version increment for Applications 1, 2, 3 & 4. The Appointment Management Foundation Standard has been revised and simplified, including extending the use Document Reference Standard Pattern to update the Registry (National Record Locator), alongside bug fixes and corrections throughout the guide.
-There have been further minor changes to the current beta, Application 6, following discussion with the BaRS Community involved, and the scope and responsibilities during Assurance have been described.
-Finally, following user feedback, the content in About BaRS, steps for technical deployment and instructions for connecting to our environments are restructured and simplified.
+Release 1.11.0 of the BaRS Implementation Guide introduces BaRS Application 8 "Referrals to a broker for Healthcare Service selection" as an alpha release.  BaRS Application 8 is designed to create interoperability for referrals between NHS England products.  The next phase of content and navigation changes in the Implementation Guide are delivered.  They are focussed on: the Home page, the Analysis section (formerly About BaRS) and relocation of content from this area.  These changes are based on user feedback. Also included in this release are minor changes to BaRS Application 6 and bug fixes and corrections throughout the guide.
 
 A clinical safety assessment of the scope of this release has determined that it has not significantly changed the clinical safety profile of the BaRS. No new hazards have been identified in this release. The latest version of the BaRS clinical safety case and hazard log can be downloaded from the <a href= "https://digital.nhs.uk/developer/api-catalogue/booking-and-referral-fhir/onboarding-support-information#hazard-log-and-clinical-safety-case-report-cscr-" target="_blank"> BaRS FHIR API onboarding support information page </a>.
