Data Sources
JDBC Data Source (client-side)
A data source is a facility for storing data. It can range in size from large and complex, such as a corporate database, to a small and
simple file with a few rows and columns. A data source can reside on a server or on a PC. The DataSource object represents a data
source in the Java programming language, and provides the ability to make a connection with a data source.
MXCS Data Source (server-side)
MXCS server data sources reside on a NonStop server. An MXCS data source represents a pool of SQL MXCS servers that share the
same NonStop SQL context.
