Future of HeuristicLab Hive

[swagner]

Collect, discuss and explore several ideas for the future of HeuristicLab Hive:

• use Entity Framework instead of Linq2SQL for data access
• provide a REST API
• think about scalability and clustering of Hive servers
• use docker for development/deployment
• use .NET Core instead of .NET Framework
• integrate cloud services
• think about future application scenarios and use cases (e.g. other applications than heuristic optimization)
• budgeting and charging
• job scheduling
• web application

• setup a Unit Test suite, e.g. initially for the top layer (i.e. service methods in HiveService and AccessService) followed by EventManager, StatisticsGenerator, HeartbeatManager, UserManager, AuthorizationManager,...
