Description

Virtual Data Connector - this is a project to create a meta-data driven data lake in which Apache Atlas is the meta-data store.

Create an open, metadata-driven virtual connector to data repositories – a Data Virtualization Platform that will satisfy the following goals:

Give users one place to access each and every Data Lake repository (search and discover)
Give users one search interface for both data and metadata inside the Data Lake (search and discover)
To provide one place to look for and provision data for all kinds of end users
To provide one place to build and maintain data security for all data repositories inside the Data Lake
