Question & Answer
Question
The "Data Server Connection" is primarily used for Self Service BI purpose, to be used mostly by Business Users who do not have Framework Manager access to create a Metadata Model Is the Data Server Connection going to replace Data Source Connection or, as mentioned above, is it for Business Users only? Also, if a Business User creates a Data Server Connection, will Framework Manager be able to access data via "Data Server Connection", or will Framework manager only be able to access Data Source connections?
