Teiid 8.3 Alpha1 Posted

The first alpha of 8.3 is now available in our downloads.  This alpha features:
  • TEIID-2253 Multi-source improvements - multi-source planning was significantly improved, which will result in much better plans when using multi-source models. The user may also now configure the multi-source column name, auto-populate the multi-column in the actual metadata, and use non-literal multi-source column values.
  • TEIID-1557 Generated Key Retrieval - JDBC now supports generated key retrieval, see the Client and the Developers Guides for more.
As well as several important fixes and general socket buffering improvements.  There will of course be more to come with this release shortly.

  1. Steven,

    Is the documentation updated on how to use this or that would only be done after 8.3 final?

  2. Sorry, the comment moderation for preventing spam held your comment in limbo. The multi-source changes are transparent to the user query. Generated key retrieval works as per the JDBC docs and will work fine for any simplistic scenario (where the Teiid insert mimics a JDBC source insert that returns the expected key). Additional enhancements will be needed for more complex/user driven key retrievals.

Teiid Spring Boot 1.7.0 Released

Teiid Spring Boot version 1.7.0 to support Teiid 16.0 has been released. This release is mainly to support the Teiid's latest version.  In this release, the support for OpenAPI code generation based on VDB has been removed as there is no community interest and moreover it was at OpenAPI 2.0, and the industry has moved to 3.0 and beyond. There are no plans to further pursue this feature. VDB maven plugin was also removed, which was intended to be a replacement for the VDB importing feature was to be used when working on OpenShift, however, since it requires the Maven repository and does not completely represent the feature as defined on the WildFly based deployments this is also removed. You can still use the VDB import feature with Teiid Spring Boot, simply define the VDB with your "IMPORT DATABASE" statements and provide the additional files along with the main VDB file. During the start of the application, Teiid Spring Boot will load all the necessary DDL files for the ...

You can convert Relational databases XML, JSON, CSV files Web Services  Sales Force Excel documents sources, or write your on top of your specific source. Teiid added support for exposing its virtual database (VDB) as OData service without any additional work. Create a virtual database with your required sources and create any additional views and deploy in the the JBoss EAP 6.1 server, that has Teiid 8.3 or greater installed.  See https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/teiid84final/OData+Support  for more information.
