Supported data sources
The Optim solutions support data sources heterogeneously. That is, a solution can generally process a business object that consists of data from one or more data sources or extract data from one data source or DBMS and insert it in another.

Support levels
The support level for a version of a database is toleration or supported.
If a database is provided at a toleration level, the Optim solution can connect to the data source. The Optim solution also supports data types and features supported in previous releases of the solution but does not support all features of the data source.
If a data source is supported, the Optim solution also:
- Supports processing of the most common data types for the data source
- Might support or exploit other new features of the data source
In addition, for relational databases, the Optim solution supports extracting object definitions for the database as well as preserving and using (with the Optim create utility) extracted objects.
