Re: can I load entire node trees with the C library libyaml ?

Hi Joachim,

A high-level API for libyaml was planned, but never finished.  I wasn't 
able to design a satisfactory high-level API for C and it appeared to be 
easier to expose the low-level interface and construct the document tree 
in a scripting language.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
