there is no storage service now. ceilometer is just collection.

compute-agent->notification-agent->gnocchi is correct. there is no way 
to publish directly from polling agents to storage currently (not 
without hacking). i'm personally not against having polling agent push 
to gnocchi directory but it's just not there currently.

we haven't ported over gnocchi to publisher. it's still a dispatcher 
with a publisher alias. there is a work item for this and it's pretty 
simple, we just didn't do it (yet). i would think it will be done in 
Pike since we ideally want to remove all dispatchers in Queen.
