Bug Report Shadow Database Planning
Rationale:
Multiple teams are working on reports using .json files obtained from Arsenal. We're looking for a better way to maintain a stateful, historical bug database without stressing the launchpad server.
Goal:
Agree in a way of persisting launchpad data "locally", being that the source of data for reports. Implement that.

Whiteboard
What is needed / Use-cases:
- System to fetch data for data-mining and report making for various teams.
- Needs to handle large queries reliably and effeciently.
- Needs to handle many fields and able to add more fields if needed.
- Need to handle private and public bugs
- Need to have multiple tables (people table / tag table / etc).
- I would like to use arsenal to gather bug data to show a report of affecting bugs.
- I would like to gather a historical view of bugs and extract relevant features for my team.
- I would like to extract secondary features and query for these easily.
- I would like to gather bug totals for particular types.
What is already available?
- Arsenal
- bug-timetracker
- quality-dashboard
How should we approach this?
- If an existing project can be extended to accomplish these tasks, then we should use it. Otherwise we should create a new project.
- Should we use json/database, if database what type of database?
