+
+        <p class="lead page-description">This page describes the Strolch software agent and the motivation behind its
+            development.</p>
+    </div>
+
+    <div class="content">
+
+        <h2>Overview</h2>
+
+        <p>Strolch is an open source component based software agent written in Java and can be compared, in a light
+            sense, with the Java EE stack: Strolch takes care of persistence, implements Services for use cases,
+            Commands as re-usable algorithms and has a parameterized data model.</p>
+
+        <p>Strolch has an intrinsic understanding for mandates, which are called realms so that a single agent can be
+            used to implement applications with multiple users/customers for instance in SaaS environments.</p>
+
+        <p>The parameterized data model consists of three top level objects, Resources, Orders and Activities. These
+            objects can have any number of ParameterBags which in turn can have any number of Parameters on them.
+            This allows for a very dynamic modelling of data structures including modification at run time. Multiple
+            ready to use Parameter types are already implemented which handle the primitive types in Java including
+            ListParameters for collections of these primitive types.</p>
+
+        <p>One of the main features of the Strolch agent, is that persistence is handled transparently and the user must
+            not be worried about databases and the likes. Currently there are two implementations for persisting the
+            Strolch model, a PostgreSQL and an XML file persistence. Currently both persistence layers persist the data
+            by converting to XML and storing it into the database. The XML file persistence stores each object in its
+            own file.</p>
+
+        <p>The agent itself has a small memory footprint and requires very few components to start. For the agent to be
+            useful it needs additional functionality which is implemented in StrolchComponents. Each component is
+            registered via its Java interface on the agent and is bound to the life cycle of the agent. When the agent
+            is started, these components can be retrieved and used to perform any number of functionalities. This is the
+            preferred way to extend the Strolch agent. There are a number of components already implemented, e.g. the
+            ServiceHandler which executes Services in a controlled fashion and can validate authorized access to these
+            services.</p>
+
+        <p>No software product is complete without a system for authentication and authorization. Strolch implements
+            this by using the Privilege framework which has been written by Robert von Burg. The standard ServiceHandler
+            detects the existence of the PrivilegeHandler and then validates that the user has authorization to perform
+            the service. This framework is implemented as its own Strolch component, thus can be retrieved at any time
+            during execution to perform fine grained and special authorization validation.</p>
+
+        <h2>Motivation</h2>
+
+        <p>A question often asked is why create Strolch. What are its benefits in contrast to using Java SE with an
+            OR-Mapper like Hibernate, or using Java EE on JBoss or Glassfish? Especially since many of the features
+            existing in those stacks needed to be re-created in Strolch.</p>
+
+        <p>The first answer to this question is that those systems are often overly complicated and bloated. Java SE
+            with Hibernate certainly is a viable option when it comes to being light-weightier but Hibernate, even
+            though it is supposed to, often fails to truly help remove the need to really understand an RDBMS. Often
+            enough Hibernate will just get in the way of the most important part of development: writing the business
+            code. Being an OR-Mapper which is supposed to implement all the nitty-gritty details of an RDBMS system,
+            Hibernate, and JPA for that matter, still often has the developer go back to understanding these
+            details.</p>
+
+        <p>Strolch tries a different approach to persistence. Instead of writing pojos/entities, Strolch's model has the
+            concept that each element's attributes are part of a composition pattern: each attribute is its own object
+            and thus can be dynamically changed at runtime, but also makes persistence of such an element generic.
+            Instead of having fixed attributes for a concrete class, these parameters are stored in a map and are
+            accessed through the parameter's ID.</p>
+
+        <p>Assigning an ID to an attribute for accessing of course brings its own downsides, i.e. the parameter might
+            simply not be there, when being accessed. This is certainly an issue that the developer must handle, when
+            implementing a project using Strolch, but allows the developer to not need to worry about persistence, as
+            this is generically handled.</p>
+
+        <p>Since the persistence is generically handled, and Strolch stays lightweight on its requirements at runtime,
+            the developer can quickly get down to what is important for business value: Writing the business logic and
+            the presentation layer. Here too Strolch tries to help the developer by bringing in concepts which are easy
+            to follow: Use cases are implemented as Services, and re-usable business logic is put into Commands.</p>
+
+        <p>There will be reasons against using Strolch, as there will be against using the Java EE stack, or an
+            OR-Mapper or even the Java ecosystem for that fact. Important is to note, that the concepts behind Strolch
+            are nothing new, but have been implemented in at least two previous proprietary products. Since those
+            products are not accessible to the public, it was decided that a re-implementation might be of use to the
+            programming community at large.</p>
+
+        <p>Currently there is at least one company using Strolch in a commercial project which helps drive Strolch's
+            development and further motivates its existence.</p>
+
+        <p>Strolch is an open source project and licensed under the Apache License 2.0.</p>
+
+        <h2>Technologoy</h2>
+
+        <p>Strolch is written in Java and is programmed against the JDK 8. Strolch runs on any JRE 8 compliant
+            environment. Strolch is tested on the Oracle JRE 8.</p>
+
+        <h3>Dependencies</h3>
+
+        <p>Strolch strives to use as few external dependencies as possible, so that the Strolch runtime is not bloated
+            unnecessarily. The following list of Strolch dependencies is a summary and was created using mvn
+            dependency:tree on the li.strolch.dev project on the 2014-09-18.</p>
+
+        <h4>Basic runtime dependencies</h4>
