YQL, in intranet environment

Post Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2011 12:37 am

I have an internal web application (users don't have access to the outside world) and would like to use YQL (or something similar) to digest internal feeds.
Any suggestions?

According to http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/ :

Quote:
YQL Open Data Tables

Open Data Tables enable developers to add tables for any data on the Web to our stable of API-specific tables. Using Open Data Tables, anyone can make their data YQL-accessible. If you would like to create an Open Data Table, visit the community page at http://datatables.org.


Regards,
Jon

Hmmm,

On further reading it looks like Open Data Tables hosts your content on the web. Guess that does not work for your internal application.

You could write a php or Java web service that passes the received SQL statements directly to your database and returns the result in the desired format. I think that would approximate the behaviour you are looking for.

If your users are unable to access the Internet, then they won't be able to access YQL (a publicly accessible service on the Internet).

With everything inside your firewall, and users not being able to access the Internet, it seems the only thing you can do is handle the internal feeds, internally, through your code.
