[teiid-designer-dev] Teiid Designer Komodo release planning

[Barry Lafond]

With the changes in Teiid 8.x coming on-line and the use of Dynamic VDB's in Openshift becoming more visible, it's become apparent that Teiid's primary tooling, Teiid Designer, should re-visit it's architecture and embrace these concepts. 

A few discussions have already occurred amongst community members and a release code-name Komodo (a type of lizard akin to Teiid, the whip-tail lizard) was adopted to identify the next-generation Teiid Designer for the time being. 


Options for incorporating elements of Teiid's new direction could be accomplished through drastically modifying/removing Designer's current underlying EMF framework and developing anew from a fresh user perspective. In addition there may be benefits to creating a tighter coupling between Komodo and Teiid runtime, as well as incorporating other JBoss technologies/projects like ModeShape and SRAMP work being done in Overlord. 


A summary of the discussions that have taken place and links to applicable JIRAs are available via wiki at:
