We would want to remote debug any code that we maintain in Metron, so any
services which run metron code would need to have remote debugging (e.g. storm,
the REST app). Ironically, this is one of those situations where just running
the in-memory components in a separate process would be easier, since it's just
a JVM param to pass in to enable remote debugging.---
