    It would be nice for the new role names in METRON-211 and METRON-212 to be 
consistent.  Which naming convention makes more sense?
    
    - METRON-211 convention -> metron_kafka, metron_hbase, metron_elasticsearch
    - METRON-212 convention -> elasticsearch_templates, kafka_topics, 
hbase_tables
    
    The reasons I like the METRON-211 convention slightly better is that:
    
    1. The role names include `metron` indicating that the role specifically 
affects the deployment of core Metron.
    2. The names center around a core Hadoop-y service so that, for example, if 
we need to add additional functionality that impacts Elasticsearch we can throw 
it into the same `metron_elasticsearch` role and the name still makes sense.
    
    I could certainly be persuaded that METRON-212 is better though.  If that 
is the case, I will update the names in METRON-211.
