SQL Data Source Configuration
- Jonathan Muse

Choose either to define your data source as a JNDI or directly from the user interface. Defining the data source pool from our UI does not declare that data source as JNDI data source, and therefore it will not be accessible by other apps, unless, of course, they are based on our own SIL Engine™ app.
These pages represent a guide for SQL connection pool definition, declared either in the Apache's Tomcat context.xml (JNDI) or directly via our pages and dialogs.
Data sources defined directly in our apps will have prevalence over the JNDI names already defined. If you have a JNDI data source named ‘mydata' and you define a database source named 'mydata’ via the interface, the latest will be used.
Configuration Guides
Configuring Data Sources
Data sources give the scripts the ability to connect to an external database which greatly expands number of potential solutions using SIL.
JNDI Datasource Configuration
Datasources can still be configured directly in Tomcat. Doing this can help ensure the connection does not get accidentally altered through the UI.
CSV Data Files
CSV files can also be used as a datasource with the help of a HSQLDB database.
