Thanks. You can do this with currently Teiid. Just package the Teiid
JDBC driver with your client application and deploy the Teiid Server
along with your "custom" translator for Mainframe somewhere else where
Teiid Server can reach the mainframe. I am assuming that you have single
mainframe instance that you are catering this access to. In a single
instance of mainframe scenario, providing a Teiid server for each client
is not required and it may be bit excessive. 

Also, with the earlier email, seems like you are looking for dynamic
metadata based on the credentials passed. You can do this with Teiid
using "dynamic vdb" feature. Your translator needs to implement
"MetadataProvider" interface. I would recommend taking a look at
"translator-jdbc" code for this. The credentials can gleaned at the
time connection creation for mainframe in your connector. 

Hope this helps.

Thank you.
