----------------------------------------

             Summary: Expose MetaModel DataContexts through a JDBC compliant 
Driver
                 Key: METAMODEL-52
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METAMODEL-52
             Project: Metamodel
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Kasper Sørensen
            Assignee: Kasper Sørensen
            Priority: Minor


Maybe a wild idea, but one that tickles my curiousity: Would it make sense to 
build a JDBC driver that allows exposing DataContexts as if they are normal 
relational databases. Since we now have a SQL parser in place and also have a 
solid metadata API, we should be able to quite easily adapt to the JDBC API.

Although I don't particularly like the JDBC API, it would make MetaModel very 
accessible for everyone who already knows JDBC. That way we can immediately 
offer connectivity to all of our datastores through a wellknown API. (And 
hopefully over time those users will start being more interested in the native 
MetaModel API).
