Sowa Data is “one API to rull them [datas] all”.

Drivers

Like JDBC Sowa Data connections are based on drivers. It’s response for base operations. In future may be there will be optimistaions

In data there are two drivers(to read and write) and DriveComplex which connect reader and writer

What ReadDriver interface should do:

• Check if the element is in cache
• Get from cache or from base

What WriteDriver interface should do:

• Put the element in cache
• After ask of cache synchronised with base

What DriverComplex interface should do:

• Manage cache
• Manage communication with Connection object
• Ask WriteDriver to write

URI-like locations

It’s like 'sowa-data-' name.of.complex '://' connection-name '/' element. For example: sowa-data-org.sf.sowa.data.MemoryComplex://0/0.

In future may be it’ll be some function support.

Mappers

It’s factory of objects like in hibernate.
