imjoey opened a new issue #3856:
URL: https://github.com/apache/apisix/issues/3856


   ### Issue description
   
   When constructing data middle platform, uses may need expose their 
databases, e.g. relational/bigdata/nosql, as web services for API consumers.
   
   For now, we firstly develop an application for databases access, and then 
set it as the upstream of APISIX routes. For example, we make use of 
[PostgREST/postgrest](https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest) to serve RESTful 
APIs for Postgresql and make APISIX proxy the requests to the RESTful APIs 
provided by postgrest.
   
   I was wondering that if APISIX could add support for auto-exposing the 
databases via uniform CRUD APIs. If possible, the only thing that users need to 
do is to fulfill the endpoint and credential of databases, and then the APIs 
are ready for data CRUD.
   
   This feature is normally a build-in feature within ESBs, like Mule or WSO2. 
In contrast, APISIX is a lightweight API Gateway. So in regard of this feature, 
I'm very much looking forward to your insights.
   
   Thanks very much.
