The Data Federation Perspective

The Data Federation perspective in Sybase WorkSpace provides a set of editors and tools for developing Data Federation view models and metadata models and for managing a data catalog.

• The Model Editors
  The view model editor or the metadata model editor appears in the central editing pane in the Data Federation perspective.
• Enterprise Explorer
  When WorkSpace Data Federation is connected to a Data Federation domain, you can use Enterprise Explorer to browse the domain’s data catalog.
• The GOA Editor
  The grid object archiving (GOA) editor lets you create and edit GOA inventory (.goi) files and GOA archive (.goa) files. The editor, when active, occupies the central editing pane of the Data Federation perspective.
• The Custom Data Service Deployer
  The custom data service deployer appears in the central editing pane in the Data Federation perspective. Use it to set up input sources and parameters for your data service plug-ins and deploy the plug-ins as data services.
• The Bottom Pane
  The bottom pane of the Data Federation perspective displays dependencies, properties, the console, execution results, the error log, and table schemas.
