Data Sources
Teiid provides the means (i.e., Translators and JEE connectors) to access a variety of types of data sources.
Databases
See JDBC Translators for access to:
-
Generic ANSI SQL - for typical JDBC/ODBC sources
-
Simple SQL - for any JDBC/ODBC source
Web Services
See Web Services Translator for access to:
-
SOAP
-
REST
-
Arbitrary HTTP(S)
OData

-
RedHat Directory Server

Files

Spreadsheets
This represents data sources that have been validated to work using the available translators and connectors. However, this does not preclude a new data source from working. It can be as easy as extending an existing translator, to creating a new translator using the Translator Development extensions.
Take a look at the list of Translators that are used as the bridge between Teiid and the external system.
