## Creating a JDBC Resource

A JDBC resource, also called a data source, lets you make connections to a database using `getConnection()`. Create a JDBC resource in one of these ways:

- In the Administration Console, open the Resources component, open the JDBC component, and select JDBC Resources. For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Administration Guide.

- Use the `asadmin create-jdbc-resource` command. For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Reference Manual.
