Resources: Databases

JMap Server manages database connections by placing them in pools. The pools contain a certain number of open database connections. These connections are shared with the entire system and used according to database access needs.

All the database connection pools (hereafter called databases for simplicity) are centrally managed using JMap Admin. Databases are typically used by JMap Server to read spatial data stored in tables and to access descriptive data related to spatial data. Once databases are configured in JMap Admin, they can be used from other sections and for various purposes in the administration process.

The Databases section in JMap Admin Resources displays a table of configured databases. In this section you can create a new database, access the database configuration interface by clicking on its name as well as manage the databases you select in the table.
