Introduction
The CONNX Application Management feature is designed for companies that are accessing several different database types through CONNX. Application Management enables the definition of a subset of data sources that can be accessed from the list of currently available data sources. When defining a CONNX application name, a user can determine which databases are required by each application and type of use. When setting up a data source, administrators can specify applications and thereby define what is seen by type of database, rather than by table. CONNX only connects to the specified databases, instead of connecting to all of the databases in the CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD).
You can add applications, delete applications, add databases to an application, remove databases from an application, and modify the lists of available databases that are used within an application.
The benefits of this feature include savings on user licenses and increased security, since the administrator can establish the types of databases available on each client computer.
