Data source overview page
Open DataBase Connectivity (ODBC) is a standard database access method that allows you to access and modify data from any application, regardless of which database management system is handling the data.
The data to be accessed needs an interpreter (driver), which understands the format of the stored data, and a connection manager that determines how the connection needs to be made.
All this information is stored in a Data Source Name (DSN). We use Access DSN for Access databases, SQL DSN for SQL databases, and MyODBC DSN for MySQL databases.
The types of data sources supported are:
Microsoft® SQL Server Data Sources
Microsoft® Access Data Sources
MyODBC Data Sources
The Overview page displays the maximum number of SQL data sources, Microsoft® Access data sources, and MyODBC data sources that are allowed for the site.
How to go to the Overview page
Log in to the control panel as a Site Administrator.
On the left navigation panel, go to the section Services > ODBC Data Source, and click Overview.
