A connection to a database (for example to the IMSMA Staging Area) is called a Data Source. The first step to get started with MINT or lightMINT is to create a data source. The tool needs to know where the data that has to be analysed is stored. A data source can be:

  • an IMSMA staging area database
  • any other database
  • an XML or Excel file -- the preferred way however is to import or dump the content of a file in a database and then connect MINT to the database. This solution simply scales better and is better manageable. Please get in touch with your GICHD IM focal point prior to including file-based data into MINT.

Types of data sources

Define a JDBC data source

Define a JNDI data source
