Ramesh Reddy commented on TEIID-3649:
-------------------------------------

+1 for [~shawkins] comments. Also there is no JCA layer to build this upon. Having a kit or not, does not provide any usability for embedded from community questions we have seen so far, and adding a translator and basic connection using programatically is pretty straight forward. The main idea behind Embedded is to "embed" into a foreign VM, where configuration/source connections, management apis, logging, security etc may have been already defined and Teiid Embedded needs to work with it. 

IMO, usability can come from
- Improve the APIs
- Improve the documentation
- Improve the examples

BTW, my ideas behind the JDBC/ODBC kit using Teiid Embedded for a particular source will completely black box the concepts such VDB, translator, resource-adapter and just provide a single JAR with URL to connect to source, may be simple properties file if needed specific to source.

> The usability of Teiid Embedded needs to be improved so that it can be closer to OOTB for some of the basic use cases. 
> The Teiid Embedded Driver discussion [1] is covering this topic with a possibility that there is an easier way to use Teiid Embedded without removing the capability to programmatically to use the tool.
