All Superinterfaces:

Customizable, DataFoundation, Nameable, QueryScriptCustomizable, SlResource

public interface MultiSourceDataFoundation
extends DataFoundation

A representation of the 'Multi Source Data Foundation' model object.

This object is a data foundation based on multiple data sources.

Use DataFoundationFactory.createMultiSourceDataFoundation(String) to instantiate a multisource-enabled data foundation from a relational connection.

The connection used by MultiSourceDataFoundation must be stored in a CMS. Following are the ways to identify a connection:

• The CMS path, which is used in the connection shortcut, see ConnectionShortcut.getPath()
• The CMS GUID, which is used internally in the connection shortcut
• The short name, which is the unique identifier of the connection in the data foundation, see DataFederatorSourceInfo.getShortName()
• The catalog, which is the unique identifier of the connection in the CMS, see DataFederatorService.getCatalog(com.sap.sl.sdk.authoring.connection.ConnectionShortcut)
• Connection Server in server mode.

The following features are supported:

• Source Infos
