Build and Deployment setup

[cyrildewit]

Description

We would like to build the backend application and deploy it to a server. Before we can do this we need to work on a build and deployment plan. The idea is to containerzie the application using Docker, so we can easily deploy the application to any server. Initially this will be done on a cheap hosting platform, but by keeping the cloud in mind when designing this solution, moving to a cloud provider should not be a diffucult step.

The first phase will be to implement the build pipeline which builds and releases the backend API container to a Docker registry. An extra step to do, is to deploy it to a cheap hosting platform that can be used for acceptance tests.
