Teiid

From the homepage:

Teiid is a data virtualization system that allows applications to use data from multiple, heterogenous data stores.

Teiid is comprised of tools, components and services for creating and executing bi-directional data services. Through abstraction and federation, data is accessed and integrated in real-time across distributed data sources without copying or otherwise moving data from its system of record.

Teiid Parts

  • Query Engine: The heart of Teiid is a high-performance query engine that processes relational, XML, XQuery and procedural queries from federated datasources.  Features include support for homogenous schemas, hetrogenous schemas, transactions, and user defined functions.
  • Embedded: An easy-to-use JDBC Driver that can embed the Query Engine in any Java application. (as of 7.0 this is not supported, but on the roadmap for future releases)
  • Server: An enterprise ready, scalable, managable, runtime for the Query Engine that runs inside JBoss AS that provides additional security, fault-tolerance, and administrative features.
  • Connectors: Teiid includes a rich set of Translators and Resource Adapters that enable access to a variety of sources, including most relational databases, web services, text files, and ldap.  Need data from a different source? A custom translators and resource adaptors can easily be developed.
  • Tools:

Teiid 8.2 final was released on November 20, 2012.

Like most integration services, not strong on integration between integration services.

Would make one helluva component for a topic map system.

A system with an inter-integration solution mapping layer in addition to the capabilities of Teiid.
