Federated searches of heterogeneous datastores using a federated datastore object

摘要: A computer method and system capable of searching multiple heterogeneous datastores with data types by employing an object oriented model to define a federated datastore object. The query translates generic into the appropriate queries for each datastore, acts as virtual ability map concepts between datastores, collection represents results from in hierarchy that maintains sub-grouping information allow accessing or single results. objects thus provide user applications enhanced accessibility different hierarchies information, well more robust search capabilities.
