# JDBC Data Source Factory

A JDBC Data Source Factory is an instance of a JDBC data source resource bound to the WebLogic Server JNDI tree as a resource factory. Using resource factories enables the EJB to map a resource factory reference in the EJB deployment descriptor to an available resource factory in a running WebLogic Server. The EJB can then use a JDBC data source factory to get a database connection from a connection pool.

To create a JDBC data source factory, click the Configure a new JDBC Data Source Factory link.
