@@ -32,24 +32,3 @@ There is an interactive mode that walks you through two demo scenarios.
 This mode requires the run.sh script to be executed **in an active tmux** session.
 
 `cd demo && ./run.sh tmux`
-
-There is also a recording of the demo available at [demo_recording.mp4](demo_recording.mp4).
-
-### Demo Scenario 1: Launch Manager
-
-![Launch Manager Demo Scenario](demo_setup1.png)
-
-* The system is setup with four ProcessGroups, each with a Startup and Recovery state.
-* By default, only the Main ProcessGroup will be started in the Startup state and remaining ProcessGroups are off initially.
-* The Startup state is starting the HealthMonitor + 100 application processes, 50 of which are supervised by the HealthMonitor.
-* The Recovery state is just running a single application process, that is being restarted in verbose mode when transitioning from Startup to Recovery state.
-* During the demo, a non-supervised application process is killed. Subsequently, LaunchManager is detecting the crash and moving the Main ProcessGroup to the Recovery state. Now, only a single application process is running with verbose logging showing up in the console.
-
-### Demo Scenario 2: Health Monitor
-
-![Launch Manager Demo Scenario](demo_setup2.png)
-
-* As explained above, the Main ProcessGroup contains 50 processes being supervised by the HealthMonitor.
-* Each of these processes cyclically reports three checkpoints.
-* For each of these processes, the HealthMonitor is evaluating an Alive, Deadline and Logical supervision every 50ms.
-* During the demo, a supervised application is triggered to misreport checkpoints. Subsequently, supervisions for this application will fail and the HealthMonitor will initiate transition of the ProcessGroup into the Recovery state. Now, only a single application process is running with verbose logging showing up in the console.
