Manged pros:
- Users are unable to tinker with resources inside the server
- Contained in resource packages
- Easy backup / restore of server config

Unmanaged pros:
- User defined folder structures
- Ability to use datasources from multiple disks
- Easier to integrate with file based backup systems

The cons would be just about the oposite.

Hi all,

Quick question about data sources:

What is the difference between managed feature sources and unmanaged feature sources? I have read that managed features sources are stored in the site repository and that unmanaged feature sources are stored outside the repository somewhere on the servers file system. However, I am still unclear as to the nature of the services applied to feature sources said to be "managed." How exactly is data managed by the resource service? Is there a succinct list of "management services" provided by the resource service? And why would I want to use managed feature sources as opposed to unmanaged? Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Travis Brannon
