ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of a utility for configuring data sources in a networked computer system are disclosed. A networked computer system may include a number of backend systems hosting a variety of types of data resources including databases produced by a variety of vendors. Application servers running transactional applications as well as many other types of computer systems may be included in the networked system. The data source configuration utility may determine the data source configuration parameters associated with each of the various types of data resources included in the system. When a data source is selected for configuration, the utility may present the configuration parameters corresponding to that particular data source to the user. The utility may create one or more data source configuration files based on parameter values received from the user.
