[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-2210) Create Object Translator to support Infinispan and other Map oriented data sources

[Steven Hawkins (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2210?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12724157#comment-12724157 ] 

Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-2210:
---------------------------------------

You could say the same thing for database tables.  It's a question of the likelihood of a cache name change vs. configuring a translator per cache (which seems like a lot of work).  I would vote for the current view that the ObjectConnection roughly represents a CacheContainer.  

You could workaround this by introducing a cache name indirection mechanism (similar to the file translator), just have a special type of ObjectConnection that represents a singleton cache and would therefore effectively ignore the name for lookup purposes, or add back just a single cache name as a configuration property.  At this point I would vote for keeping additional configuration off of the translator.

> Create the Object-translator that can support map oriented data sources (i.e., Infinispan, Coherence, etc.).   The OBJECTABLE function can be used to tabularize the object once retrieved from the translator.
