Stories

As a user, I want to see a catalog of available services to order.

Allow the user to see a list of services (similar to https://servala.com/service/).
The user can then choose a cloud provider control plane to instantiate the service on.

Implementation Notes

A Service and a Cloud Provider are connected via the Service Offering, example https://servala.com/offering/cloudscale/postgresql/
A Service Offering must include the information on which control planes a service can be ordered. It can be, that a cloud provider has multiple control planes, but not all services are available on all control planes. When ordering a service instance, the user will have to choose in which control plane the service will be created.
The Service Offering must include the name of the Kubernetes resource called CompositeResourceDefinition in the API group apiextensions.crossplane.io/v1 which is the API of the service itself, for example xvshnredis.vshn.appcat.vshn.io. This information is later used to discover the API specification via the OpenAPI definition available in the Kubernetes API.
