Hi Eugene

It still not make sense for me to store static configuration on the DB
just for easy implementation.
However if the service type will support creation and deletion REST
api in future, I would like to approve this patch
as a first step of it.
You answered "I think it's doable but I'd still consider current
implementation as a first step - enikanorov. "
in the googled docs. so I believe we are in the same boat now.

I wanna make it clear future work.

- Service Type REST API (for admin) will add supports
  - Ceate Service Type
  - Delete Service Type
 -  Each driver users will lazy load the library if it is not loaded.
    (may be this should be implemented on service side such as FW, LBaaS,VPN)

- Remove service type configuration from conf

Is this OK for you guys?

Thanks
Nachi
