The point I am trying to make is that Virtuoso can integrate data from
external DBMS systems in a variety of ways.

ODBC and JDBC are simply APIs for accessing external DBMS systems.

What you really need here is a clear project definition and a discussion
with us about how it would be implemented.

Despite the fact that Virtuoso is a hardcore DBMS, its also a hardcore
Data Virtualization platform for handling relations represented in a
variety of ways using a plethora of protocols.

I am email away if you want to explore this further.
