Hello,
What is the difference between Data server and Data source in cognos Analytics ?
Thanks !
Data Sources are what you find in the legacy Admin console. They are the "old" way of setting up connections and signons to your data, and they support both DQM and CQE. Data Servers are the modern way of setting up connections and signons to your data, and you find the option to configure them in the CA portal. They support only DQM.
Interestingly, when you set up a Data Server connection, you can then see it defined in the legacy Admin console as a Data Source also. The reverse is not true though.
Cheers!
