Hey Julien,

I believe this blueprint is about DB for OpenStack cloud (we use
Galera now), while here we're talking about DB backend for Fuel
itself. Fuel has a separate node (so called Fuel Master) and we use
PostgreSQL now.

Unfortunately we already tied up to PostgreSQL. For instance, we use
PostgreSQL's ARRAY column type. Introducing JSON column is one more
way to tighten knots harder.
