This must support ordering by a specified property.

This project should be structured after the design pattern set out by mod-spring-sample.

A hotfix has been done to return a success string instead of the entire batch. The network traffic was doubled during batch save.

This can be done by overriding the save method on the ReferenceLinkRepo to ensure that no ReferenceLink exists with the same externalReference and type. A named method query should be introduced into the ReferenceLinkRepo to handle this lookup (something like countByReferenceLinkTypeAndExternalReference)

Alternatively we can utilize model validation to establish a multi column constraint.. If this is done we will need to handle error responses.

Completing this issue should include exploration into the possibility of representing this entity both as a key/value pair and a multi table or column representation.
