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.
