Pax JDBC implements the OSGi org.osgi.service.jdbc.DataSourceFactory [5] spec. Its primary focus is to expose DataSourceFactory for various drivers. A user can then use the DSF api to programatically construct the DataSource instance The proposed bundle instead aims to declarativly create the DataSource instance based on OSGi config. The client code just need to obtain the DS via DI. It has following features 1. A DataSource service backed Connection Pool which can be directly used in production 2. Enable configuring the various DataSource properties via OSGi config 3. Self contained and This bundle can leverage the Pax Bundles to obtain Driver instance/native DataSource instance and then wrap it with the Connection Pool Chetan Mehrotra [5] http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/jdbc/DataSourceFactory.html
