Abstract:
Embodiments implement a plug-in architecture supporting adding new data sources to a federated database without the need to recode a federated database manager software module. The federated database manager software module includes a plug-in framework for interfacing with a data source cartridge. The data source cartridge supplies metadata including a feature table of a newly added data source to the framework and creates a physical query for the newly added data source based on an execution plan generated by the federated database manager software module. The data source cartridge returns the result set of the query of the new added data source to the federated database manager software module.

Abstract:
Embodiments implement a plug-in architecture supporting adding new data sources to a legacy federated database without the need to recode a federated database manager software module. The federated database manager software module includes an administrative tool and a plug-in framework for interfacing with a data source cartridge. The data source cartridge supplies metadata including a feature table of a newly added data source to the framework and creates a physical query for the newly added data source based on an execution plan generated by the federated database manager software module. The administrative tool generates presentation panes including new data sources added to the legacy federated database.
