Relating applications to servers
Description
I am trying to build up a cost model in Waltz, where we can start forecasting and calculating costs for an org unit/team. I'd like to add our Kubernetes deployments but I see that there are only tables for Servers and Databases. We should be able to load our Postgres, MSSQL and other databases into the Database_Information table, and I have been able to load our K8s deployments into the Servers_Information table.
How do we link our applications to servers? I am assuming that it's got something to do with entities, relationships, relationship_kind table etc. - Do you have an entity diagram that documents this? Any tips on best practices that you've found?
How general is the concept of an entity? Does it only include applications or are other things (like servers, databases, software) also considered entities?
