Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization (JDV) is a lean, virtual data integration solution that unlocks trapped data and delivers it as easily consumable, unified, and actionable information. JDV makes data spread across physically diverse systems such as multiple databases, XML files, and Hadoop systems appear as a set of tables in a local database.
When deployed on OpenShift, JDV enables:
- Service enabling your data
- Bringing data from outside to inside the PaaS
- Breaking up monolithic data sources virtually for a microservices architecture
Together with the JDV for OpenShift image, we have made available OpenShift templates that allow you to test and bootstrap JDV.
This article will demonstrate how to get started with JDV running on OpenShift. JDV is available as a containerized xPaaS image that is designed for use with OpenShift Enterprise 3.2 and later. We’ll be using the Red Hat Container Development Kit (CDK) to get started quickly.
The CDK provides a pre-built CDK based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux to help you develop container-based (sometimes called docker) applications quickly. The containers you build can be easily deployed on any Red Hat container host or platform, including: Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host, and our platform-as-a-service solution, OpenShift Enterprise 3.
