David Morales commented on METAMODEL-52:
----------------------------------------
Very interesting topic¡ Presto has already a similar feature, managing catalogs
so that you can connect to different data stores.
http://prestodb.io/docs/current/installation/jdbc.html
And it will be quite useful in order to connect metamodel to BI / ETL tools
(pentaho?)
> Expose MetaModel DataContexts through a JDBC compliant Driver
> -------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: METAMODEL-52

> Project: Metamodel
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Kasper Sørensen
> Assignee: Kasper Sørensen
> Priority: Minor

> Maybe a wild idea, but one that tickles my curiousity: Would it make sense to
> build a JDBC driver that allows exposing DataContexts as if they are normal
> relational databases. Since we now have a SQL parser in place and also have a
> solid metadata API, we should be able to quite easily adapt to the JDBC API.
> Although I don't particularly like the JDBC API, it would make MetaModel very
> accessible for everyone who already knows JDBC. That way we can immediately
> offer connectivity to all of our datastores through a wellknown API. (And
> hopefully over time those users will start being more interested in the
> native MetaModel API).
