RadClientDataSource API - AngualrJS friendly
It would be nice to have a very quick and easy way to create a datasource, at one end just put in the SQL or point it to EF at the other end JSON WebAPI. 
It needs to work well with AngularJS.
It would be nice if you also have a look at BreezeJS to see have you can traverse data keys(more an Entity Framework thing). Even if consistent T4 data frameworks are created.
What this means to me is that I can web service enable existing SQL and how have to worry about security, that the endpoints can be monitored or scaled up. So I can move quickly from Proof of Concept to Hardened Product with out the usual friction.

Hi Doug,

The purpose of the ClientDataSource is to access data, not to replace WebService/WebAPI creation.

The current functionality that allows binding to SqlDataSource would serialize the data and make it available client-side. 

Regarding AngularJS, you can use the underlying Kendo UI DataSource:

You can also use the Kendo UI for Angular suite, depending on your requirements:

With that said, along with the lack of interest from the community, I would have to decline this request.
