Just to make this a bit more explicit: for Hawkular we want not only
discover and represent the classic parent-child relations like 
"WildFly running on JVM on RHEL", but also discover that e.g. a couple
of WildFly servers (or apps) use the same JDBC url, so they are most
likely to form an application that is clustered. Similarly for joint 
Caches / JGroups / messaging infrastructure.
