Upgrading the Ganga user interface to use a relational database for persistent storage

This project will replace the old xml-based metadata system with a database, which will be assisted by a caching mechanism that will allow for a more responsive user interface. The containerized database will also allow for remote access to job metadata, provided the user has access to the host of the container. The project will enhance the process of large scale computing of batch jobs at CERN and other similar organizations.
