Hope that work shall be done only once!
Another possible way is to implement base library on C# entirely. :)
Or to make base library provide results in more convenient form.
For example mapping HPI API to SOAP, SNMP, XML RPC and etc.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
