Steven Hawkins resolved TEIID-6012.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Explained


You use something like TEXTTABLE or XMLTABLE to convey how to convert a given file into a tabular representation.  Since this is a common function it was promoted to the engine rather than handled by a translator as csv / xml is obtained from a variety of sources.  Once you have the sql create you expected output, you can create a view, and optionally materialize that, then access it as if it were any other table/view.

At this time there are no plans to add a TEXT translator.  If you want further encapsulation of the text processing there are other drivers and projects that can be utilized and then accessed as a source.

> We need to read CSV file data from the GCP storage.
> so we are following steps mentioned in the ticket TEIID-5940
> It is mentioned in the third step, that you will have to use TEXTTABLE or XMLTABLE functions to consume CSV or XML.
>  
> So I just have a question without using this function can we write a query. just like we write for other databases like MYSQL, SQLServer, BigQuery, etc
>  
> Also, want to know whether Amazon S3 is a free or paid translator?
