49    is a configuration storage backends containing a complete
50    configuration database, including user data, default or
51    policy layers and schemata.
52
53    <p> Configuration data is organized into layers which are selected
54        by components and entities.
55    </p>
56
57    <p> Components are characterized by configuration schemas.
58        A component contains configuration data for a particular
59        application domain or software module.
60    </p>
61    <p> Entities are organised hierarchically in organisations,
62        groups, roles and individual users. Each element of the associated
63        hierarchy corresponds to a layer that applies to an entity.
64    </p>
65    <p> Layers contains data for multiple components
66        associated to a single entity.
