# Create a JDBC Data Source Factory

Use this page to create a JDBC data source factory.

Data source factories are included in this release for backward compatability only. Legacy application-scoped JDBC connection pools rely on JDBC data source factories to provide default connection pool values.

#### Configuration Options

Name | Description
--- | ---
Name | A unique name that identifies this data source factory in the WebLogic domain.
User Name | The database account user name used in physical database connections. This may be overridden by `user-name` in the descriptor. MBean Attribute: `JDBCDataSourceFactoryMBean.UserName` Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
Password | The password for the database user name.
URL | The URL of the database to connect to. The format of the URL varies by JDBC driver. This may be overridden by `url` in the descriptor. MBean Attribute: `JDBCDataSourceFactoryMBean.URL` Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
Driver Class Name | The full package name of JDBC driver class used to create the physical database connections in the connection pool. This may be overridden by `driver-name` in the descriptor. MBean Attribute: `JDBCDataSourceFactoryMBean.DriverClassName` Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
Factory Name | The name used in deployment descriptor files to reference this JDBC data source factory. This is referenced from the `connection-factory` element in `weblogic-application.xml`. MBean Attribute: `JDBCDataSourceFactoryMBean.FactoryName` Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
