| Re: [emf-dev] Persistence |
David,
EMF's default persistence is to XMI files. However, there are lots of
examples of using other serialization formats.
I also know of one effort underway to persist EMF objects to RDB tables.
They have fairly simple mappings at this point.
In addition to simply changing the persistence format of a given model,
we're also interested in looking at relating model definition and
persistence format. For example, if you look at the "What's new in EMF
1.0.1 (item 6), you'll see that we're already experimenting with allowing
users to define their models using XML Schema and then using that schema as
the default serialization format for the model. We could imagine a similar
approach when a model is defined using an RDB Schema.
We'd be happy to see others working in this area.
Frank.

Please respond to
emf-dev
Since EMF's persistence is strictly via XMI files, I'm interested to know
if
anyone out there working with with the open source has plugged in another,
more scalable persistence handler. I'd also like to know whether IBM is
working on more scalable peristence for enterprise-scale metadata
repositories.
