+DBIx::NoSQL is a layer over DBI that presents a NoSQLish way to store and
+retrieve data. It does this by using a table called __Store__. Once connected
+to a database, it will detect if this table is missing and create it if
+necessary.
+
+When writing data to the store, the data (a HASH reference) is first
+serialized using JSON and then inserted/updated via DBIx::Class to (currently)
+an SQLite backend.
+
+Retrieving data from the store is done by key lookup or by searching an
+SQL-based index. Once found, the data is deserialized via JSON and returned.
