+// How backends work in netdata:
+//
+// 1. There is an independent thread that runs at the required interval
+//    (for example, once every 10 seconds)
+//
+// 2. Every time it wakes, it calls the backend formatting functions to build
+//    a buffer of data. This is a very fast, memory only operation.
+//
+// 3. If the buffer already includes data, the new data are appended.
+//    If the buffer becomes too big, because the data cannot be sent, a
+//    log is written and the buffer is discarded.
+//
+// 4. Then it tries to send all the data. It blocks until all the data are sent
+//    or the socket returns an error.
+//    If the time required for this is above the interval, it starts skipping
+//    intervals, but the calculated values include the entire database, without
+//    gaps (it remembers the timestamps and continues from where it stopped).
+//
+// 5. repeats the above forever.
