Purpose
In order to be able to query event histories, a persistent store of events received over the event bus connecting clients, services and containers is maintained. This store is provided with a simple (Axis) web-service façade (no authentication required).
The position of this repository service can be seen in the event bus diagram.
Mode of Usage
In most cases, the user will interact with this service through a specially designed Siege view (refer to the tutorial for specifics). The programmatic interactions take place via the web service ports.
