+
+Summary
+-------
+
+Following DCAE components are available with default ONAP/DCAE installation.
+
+    - Platform components
+
+        - Cloudify Manager (helm chart)
+        - Bootstrap container (helm chart)
+        - Configuration Binding Service (helm chart)
+        - Deployment Handler (helm chart)
+        - Policy Handler (helm chart
+        - Service Change Handler (helm chart)
+        - Inventory API (helm chart)
+        - Dashboard (helm chart)
+        - VES OpenAPI Manager (helm chart)
+
+    - Service components
+
+        - VES Collector (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+        - HV-VES Collector (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+        - PNF-Registration Handler  (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+        - Docker based Threshold Crossing Analytics (TCA-Gen2) (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+        - Holmes Rule Management (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+        - Holmes Engine Management (helm chart  & cloudify blueprint)
+
+    - Additional resources that DCAE utilizes deployed using ONAP common charts:
+
+        - Postgres Database
+        - Mongo Database
+        - Consul Cluster
+
+Below service components (mS) are available to be deployed on-demand (through Cloudify Blueprint)
+
+ 	- SNMPTrap Collector
+ 	- RESTConf Collector
+ 	- DataFile Collector
+ 	- PM-Mapper 
+ 	- BBS-EventProcessor
+ 	- VES Mapper
+ 	- Heartbeat mS
+ 	- SON-Handler
+ 	- PM-Subscription Handler
+ 	- DataLake Handler (Admin and Feeder)
+ 	- Slice Analysis mS
+ 	- DataLake Extraction Service
+ 	- KPI-Ms
+
+    Notes:
+
+        \*  These components are delivered by the Holmes project.
+
+
+
+Under OOM (Kubernetes) all DCAE component containers are deployed as Kubernetes Pods/Deployments/Services into Kubernetes cluster. DCAE components are deployed using combination of Helm charts and Cloudify blueprint as noted above. DCAE provides a Cloudify Manager plugin (k8splugin) that is capable of expanding a Cloudify blueprint node specification for a service component to a full Kubernetes specification, with additional enhancements such as replica scaling, sidecar for logging to ONAP ELK stack, registering services to MSB, etc.
