2.2. Data Source Authentication

Data source authentication is generally determined by the capabilities of JCA resource adapters used to connect to external resources. Consult the JBoss EAP JCA documentation for the capabilities of data source pooling and supplied resource adapters for more information. Typically a single username/password credential is supported, such as when creating JDBC Data Sources. In more advanced usage scenarios the source and/or translator may be configured or customized to use an execution payload, the JBoss Data Virtualization subject, or even the calling application subject via Pass-through Authentication.
