Data connection:

A data connection is a collection of information required to access a specific database. This information includes a data source name (DSN) and logon information. For example, a data connection for a Microsoft SQL Server database consists of the name of the database, the location of the server on which it resides, network information used to access that server, a user ID, and a password.
