+Package view contains support for collecting and exposing aggregates over stats.
+
+In order to collect measurements, views need to be defined and registered.
+A view allows recorded measurements to be filtered and aggregated over a time window.
+
+All recorded measurements can be filtered by a list of tags.
+
+OpenCensus provides several aggregation methods: count, distribution and sum.
+Count aggregation only counts the number of measurement points. Distribution
+aggregation provides statistical summary of the aggregated data. Sum distribution
+sums up the measurement points. Aggregations are cumulative.
+
+Users can dynamically create and delete views.
+
+Libraries can export their own views and claim the view names
+by registering them themselves.
+
+Exporting
+
+Collected and aggregated data can be exported to a metric collection
+backend by registering its exporter.
+
+Multiple exporters can be registered to upload the data to various
+different backends. Users need to unregister the exporters once they
+no longer are needed.
