-Storage Layer
-=============
-
-The storage layer is split up into multiple parts to allow Synapse to run
-against different configurations of databases (e.g. single or multiple
-databases). The `data_stores` are classes that talk directly to a single
-database and have associated schemas, background updates, etc. On top of those
-there are (or will be) classes that provide high level interfaces that combine
-calls to multiple `data_stores`.
-
-There are also schemas that get applied to every database, regardless of the
-data stores associated with them (e.g. the schema version tables), which are
-stored in `synapse.storage.schema`.
