+ collection service. It stores system and inventory information about
+ hardware and software systems. This information is (continuously) collected
+ from various configurable backends (inventory services, monitoring services,
+ etc.) and stored in a graph-like hierarchy of generic objects. The store may
+ be queried through a generic interface independent of the active backends.
+ Object names are canonicalized before they are added to the store to ensure
+ a consistent view of your infrastructure.
