7.2. Guide View
In this section, we introduce the Guides View by walking through a simple example. For this example, we will follow the Model JDBC Source Action Set. The actions appear in the following order:
- Define Teiid Model Project
- Create JDBC connection
- Create source model for JDBC data source
- Preview Data
- Define VDB
- Edit VDB
- Execute VDB
The action names are self explanatory. We will create a new Model Project in the workspace, then define our connection properties to a MySQL database. We will then connect to the database and import the metadata, creating a source model in Teiid Designer. Next we will preview the database contents. Finally we will define a VDB and then deploy it to a running JBoss Data Virtualization Server to execute.
