DataLink list

A DataLink is a pre-defined, or custom designed, interpretive layer that links a client application such as Application Studio with the underlying transactional layer of a database. It contains the business logic, localization and security to provide a single, consistent, view of the data to all users. A DataLink is one of several possible data sources that can be used by Application Studio. A DataLink list is a list created in Application Studio from elements held in the source database. You connect to a datalink through a database alias.
