Data Export/Import on MPM

### Overview

MPM needs a unified way to move data in and out of MPM into other platforms and also different versions of MPM.

The challenge posed here is how to represent a data import/export layer as a flexible API that can satisfy the following requirements;

- Ease of moving data from and into other CRM platforms ie. Upya, Angasa etc. Flexibility is a key component to make this smoother than it would normally be otherwise
- Ease of moving data from into two separate instances of MPM
- Unified data view from an API perspective.

## Public Data Model (external data transfer i.e Upya, Angaza)
- Clusters i.e Site, Mini-grid, Village.
- Devices ie. Meters, Solar Home Systems, Ebikes.
- Customers i.e Address, customer type, customer group.
- Transactions i.e Provider
- Appliance i.e Appliance type, Appliance SKUs, Payment Plan (Rates) (units)

## MPM instance Data Model

- Users i.e Permisions, Admin.
- MPM settings
- All Public Data Models

## Data format

JSON (used strictly for MPM to MPM migration)
