+====================================
+
+Holmes provides alarm correlation and analysis for telecom cloud infrastructure
+and services, including hosts, vims, VNFs and NSs. Holmes aims to find the root
+reason which causes the failure or degradation of services by digging into the
+ocean of events collected from different levels of the telecom cloud.

+Besides, Holmes has been enhanced to be CCVPN use case supportive. CCVPN related assistant tools are added to the common library of Holmes.

+
+**New Features**
+In the Beijing release, Holmes provides no more functionalites than the Amsterdam release. Its main features remains like follows:
+
+- `Rule Management <https://jira.onap.org/browse/HOLMES-4>`_ The feature provides interfaces for the users to create, query, update and delete rules. In this release, they are used along with the DCAE interfaces to accomplish the deployment (creation/update) of the control loop related rules.
+- `Engine Management <https://jira.onap.org/browse/HOLMES-5>`_ The feature is not exposed to the end user directly. It's mainly used internally by Holmes as a container for the execution of rules. It provides interface for rule verification and deployment/un-deployment.
+
+Besides, Holmes has been enhanced to meet the platform maturity requirements. The enhancement mainly covers:
+
+- Scaling: Holmes supports horizontal scale-in/scale-out operations in case it is overloaded by too large amounts of data.
