             Summary: Add a TMUDF that can return a JDBC result set as 
table-valued output
                 Key: TRAFODION-1581
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-1581
             Project: Apache Trafodion
          Issue Type: Sub-task
    Affects Versions: 1.3-incubating
            Reporter: Hans Zeller
            Assignee: Hans Zeller
             Fix For: 2.0-incubating


One way to read data from other data sources would be a Trafodion TMUDF that 
takes a connection string, an SQL statement and other necessary info as an 
input, connects to a JDBC data source, prepares the statement, and returns the 
result set as a table-valued output. This would enable a basic connector for 
many data sources, including Spark, Drill and Kafka.

Specifically, I would like to add a "predefined" TMUDF to Trafodion that takes 
the following parameters:

1. The name of a jar with a JDBC driver.
2. A connection string to use
3. The class name of the driver
4. A user id
5. A password
6. The type of processing to do (right now only one type is supported)
7. Info depending on the type.

The first type of processing I would like to add is "source", and it does the 
following: It accepts a list of SQL statements to execute. Only one of these 
statements can return a result set. The data in the result set will be returned 
as table-valued output.

Future processing types could do a parallel select like ODB does or they could 
insert into a table on the system identified by the JDBC driver info.

All parameters need to be compile-time constants, so that the UDF can connect 
to the data source at compile time and prepare the statement. Based on the 
prepared statement, it will determine number, names and SQL types of the 
column(s) of the table-valued result.
