Todd Nine commented on OPENJPA-1744:
------------------------------------

I've built the Cassandra JDO plugin on github.  I'm migrating from Datanucleus 
JDO to using Open JPA and re-creating the framework.  To me JDO vs JPA is 
simply seem to be a matter of preference.  The JPA spec cannot be fully 
supported using column based storage mechanisms.  However most of the JDO spec 
in relation to querying is not supported either.  As a developer of a plugin 
who as done both spec implementations in Cassandra, I think it simply is a 
preference.  If the user is aware of the unsupported features in JPA and avoids 
them, I see no reason to add additional complication to Open JPA.  The current 
framework is one of the most elegant for building a custom storage provider in 
JPA.  I think adding JDO will make integration for new providers more difficult.

> OpenJPA came from Kodo, which was a JDO implementation at the time the code 
> was forked.  This request is to bring compliance with the latest JDO 
> specification back to the implementation so that it can be used with 
> nonrelational backends like Google BigTable, Hadoop, etc.
