This project contains a base library that abstracts Exasol's Virtual Schema API and provides a convenient starting point for implementing Lua-based Virtual Schemas.
Why would you want to implement a Virtual Schema in Lua?
Because it is blazingly fast. Exasol has a built-in Lua interpreter for scripting and there is no more direct approach to extend Exasol with your own functions.
Users are developers including this library into their VS and using the API.
Developers in this context are building or modifying this library.
