About ColdFusion data sources

ColdFusion provides the ability to deliver dynamic database content to the Web quickly. You can use various types of databases to drive your ColdFusion application to query Web sites, LDAP servers, POP mail servers and documents in a variety of formats. A data source is the entry point for database operations.

 

You can configure ODBC, OLE DB (in Windows NT/2000), and Native data sources, and you can use Verity collections as a source of data.
