+== Data Sources
+
+The term *data source* logically refers to a database or other data
+storage entity. A JDBC (client) data source is physically a Java object
that
+contains properties such as the URL of the physical database, the
+catalog to use when connecting to this database, and the schema to use
+when connecting to this database. The JDBC data source also contains
+methods for obtaining a JDBC connection to the underlying database.
+
+[[jdbc-data-source-client-side]]
+=== JDBC Data Source (client-side)
+
+All JDBC data source classes implement either the `javax.sql.DataSource`
+interface or the `javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource` interface. The Type
+4 driver data source classes are `org.trafodion.t4jdbc.HPT4DataSource` and
+`org.trafodion.t4jdbc.HPT4ConnectionPoolDataSource`. (These classes are
+defined by the JDBC 3.0 specification.)
+
+Typically, a user or system administrator uses a tool to create a data
+source, and then registers the data source by using a JNDI service
+provider. At run time, a user application typically retrieves the data
+source through JNDI, and uses the data source's methods to establish a
+connection to the underlying database.
+
+A DataSource object maps to an instance of a database. In the Type 4
+driver product, the DataSource object acts as an interface between the
+application code and the database and enables connection with an DCS
+data source.
