wish list

I am hoping that ocean.pangeo.io can be the most fancy, powerful pangeo yet. To achieve this, we will need to innovate a bit. I particular, I am hoping we can set up the following

• [x] My pangeo_ecco_examples repo is a good starting point for the default image / environment
• [x] That binder contains a config that automatically populates an intake catalog.
• [ ] Use google cloud firestore for shared user storage (has already been solved in https://github.com/pangeo-data/dev.pangeo.io-deploy/issues/25, https://github.com/pangeo-data/dev.pangeo.io-deploy/pull/28)
• [x] Have different options for notebook machine types. For example, e.g., small (2 cores, 8 GB), medium (4 cores, 16 GB), large (16 cores, 64 GB) , GPU option, etc. Has been discussed in https://github.com/pangeo-data/pangeo/issues/348. Should be straightforward with the profile_list open, see kubespawner docs.
• [ ] I would like to customize the look and feel of the login page so it is more "pangeo themed"

For the different machine types, I would look into: https://cloud.google.com/compute/pricing#predefined under the "high memory machine types"
