Yeah, I agree with Andrea.  I think one thing that could work well is to
have several datastore factories in the 'Image Mosaicing Pyramidal JDBC
Plugin'.  Like one for PostGIS Raster, one for Oracle GeoRaster, one for the
generic case, etc.  Many of the params should be known if a user is to
select PostGIS.  I think Oracle has an example of more than one datastore
factory.  Ideally then users are just specifying the connection params in
the GUI.

And I agree it'd be even better if one could just use one datastore
connection for both vector and raster.  I think ArcSDE may have gotten that
improvement, though not oracle and postgis.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
