---------------------------------------------------------------

Added some notes on what I've seen so far as I run through the gaianDB code. I will look at subtask 8 .. but this was needed as prep. Will continue next week

The test data source used was https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ATLAS/Example+of+virtualizing+MySQL+employee+data+via+gaianDB - there's further gaiandb info via the atlas wiki

> GaianDB is a distributed, federated database built on Apache Derby.
> The documentation is at https://github.com/gaiandb/gaiandb/blob/master/README.md - navigate up for the source.
> As part of a Virtual Connector Project based on Atlas we are using gaianDB to provide a virtualization layer. We need to control access to underlying resources and will be building a Ranger plugin for gaiandb to support this. GaianDB already has support for a form of policy plugin which allows the SQL to be intercepted.
> It is unclear if this code will sit
>  - external to ranger/atlas ie in the gaianDB sources
>  - as a sample in the Atlas project (so that we collate what is needed for the virtual connector project)
>  - as a sample, or component in the Ranger project
> However it seems helpful to describe the proposal here and get feedback/dialogue in the ranger community :-)
