+### Database support
+
+If you are considering adding support for a new type of database, it is recommended to follow the pattern as used
+by the SnowflakeHandler class, which extends the StorageHandler interface. This way, the brand/database specific code
+is isolated into one class, instead of through the code paths that implement support for the 
+databases that were added earlier. This will lead to clearer code, that will also be easier to test and debug.
