System/Policy Configuration should be stored in a Configuration Management System

A Redhat write-up on CMS https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/automation/what-is-configuration-management

The concern is a database without a CMS concepts will not meet enterprise needs.

That blog post isn't saying you have to store policy configuration like we have in a cmdb but leverage something like ansible tower to enforce that configuration across your environment.

With the api we should be able to provide an ansible module or terraform provider that someone could easily manage their policy configuration. Integrating with different CMDB would be outside the scope for this project.

@pflynn-virtru I opened up two new issues that I think will help resolve this ask. Re-open though if you have other thoughts.
