There *is* a new component that is like CDS, provider and uni-dataset all rolled into one component, so that you don't have to drop all three to get going - perhaps that's what you were thinking of. In a way it's similar to how the IBX (interbase) components work: the unidirectional dataset is like a TIBSQL, and the new combined component is like a TIBQuery, the latter which internally creates TIBSQLs to do the SQL and caches results like a CDS does.
