SysDB's features are build around a set of concepts which are explained in
this section.
+Object Store
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The central part of SysDB's database is the object store which stores all
+objects (hosts, services) known to SysDB. The implementation is provided by a
+"store" plugin and may be backed by arbitrary data-stores. At least one store
+plugin has to be loaded to let the daemon do its work.
+
Hosts and Services
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The basic building block of SysDB's store are host and service objects
based on facts like architecture or LSB information using query commands like
*LOOKUP* (see manpage:sysdbql[7]).
-Host and service objects are managed by backend plugins and queried from other
-systems, like inventory databases or monitoring systems.
+Host and service objects are provided and updated by backend plugins and
+queried from other systems, like inventory databases or monitoring systems.
Hostname Canonicalization
