Don Krapohl commented on TEIID-5211:
------------------------------------

[~shawkins] not sure if the question was for me but for our concept, Teiid gives us excellent abstraction and we have a large number of sources, some of which move around datacenters as they evolve.  So we're looking at a generalized capability to forward engineer independent of dialect.  We understand well that the data structures don't necessarily translate if we change underlying storage/retrieval but applying the current (baseline) structures give us a starting point.

It would also make it possible to do Teiid-first development and back into our storage later..

> As a platform I am better able to better engineer my underlying data stores starting with a virtual model.
> Please add the ability to create, alter, and drop schema objects and relationahips (DDL) in underlying data sources.  Example, if I design a source in Teiid Designer I may wish to have Teiid do the DDL against the underlying data source(s).  This allows better abstraction an portability of the data model.
