# Data Source Platform Types

TopLink abstracts the details of your underlying data source using data source platform classes. TopLink provides the following data source platforms:

- Database Platforms

- EIS Platforms

A data source platform is owned by your project's `Login`. For more information about logins, see "Data Source Login Types".

In general, TopLink Workbench provides minimal access to a platform API. To configure most platform options, you must use an amendment method (see "Configuring Amendment Methods"), or a `preLogin` event listener (see "Managing Session Events With the Session Event Manager").
