A translator JAR file can be deployed into Teiid Server in two different ways
Create a module under "jboss-as/modules" directory and define the translator name and module name in the teiid subsystem in standalone-teiid.xml file or domain-teiid.xml file and restart the server. The dependent Teiid or any other java class libraries must be defined in module.xml file of the module. For production profiles this is recommended.
For development time or quick deployment you can deploy the translator JAR using the CLI or AdminShell or admin console programs. When you deploy in JAR form the dependencies to Teiid java libraries and any other third party libraries must be defined under META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file.
