Database services

[NicolasMahe]

This issue is for the proposal of a service. Feel free to contribute by sharing your feedback or implementing part of it and sharing it here.

Description

Database systems are a fundamental in applications development.

The MESG ecosystem should contains services that ease the connection and interaction with databases.

The database services could be grouped in 2 main categories:

Proxy to a remote database

The database itself will be hosted outside of MESG. The service's tasks should accept as parameters its credentials and endpoint.

Start a local database

The database should run inside the service (in a linked container) with a shared volume to the host computer (in order to not keep the data when the service restart).

Task suggestions

The tasks should map the database basic functions (insert, query, update, delete).

Events suggestions

Even if the database doesn't emit any events, we could create and emit events when insert, delete or update occur to make the DB reactive!
