Description

Context

Currently our data model for Experiments has a technology field. However, an experiment can contain more than one technology.

Problem or idea

We should change the data model to reflect this.

Solution or next step

We should change the technology field to be an array field called technologies. This will require changes to the data model, everywhere that uses that field, the API/elastic search, and probably also the frontend.

Research direction

Start by locating the Experiment data model and every use of the technology field. Then trace the API, Elasticsearch, and frontend entry points that expose this field; the work is done when the renamed technologies array is handled consistently across all of them.
