    This is very simple class, that is used to determine if the ip address of the host have changed.

    Internally this class relies on `RedisSuperStorage` to fetch the last used ip address.

    The ip address of the current host is acquired using python's builtin `socket` interface, by requesting an address resolve agains the localhost's host name.
    In some scenarios this may result in wrongly identifying the loopback address instead of the assigned address.
    In most cases, where the application is run inside a docker container this method will work just fine.
