-----------------------------------------------------------------

The cluster entity will have the following properties

name
description
list<string> aliases - This will hold older cluster names or previous aliases
 
This also means that the hooks will have to pass the qualifiedName in entity 
creates/updates such as  "dbName.tableName@clusterId" instead of the 
"dbName.tableName@clusterName"

The plan is to keep an inmemory copy and be able to do a  lookup by any of the 
cluster names i.e aliases and also by the primary /current name which is stored 
in "name" attribute

> Cluster name could easily be changed by users which is used in qualified 
> names to dedup entities. For eg: hive_table as <dbName.tableName@clusterName> 
> . Hence all entities will be recreated if they are created again unless a 
> mass update on repository is done with new cluster name.
> Hence cluster  should be represented by an id which is constant and tied to 
> clusterName which could change
