Abstract

See full text

A method enables access of a plurality of data sources by a single access operation where each data source in the plurality of data sources requires a different driver to access the data source so that there is a plurality of different drivers. The method includes using an application programming interface (API) for each driver in the plurality of different drivers. The API is substantially identical for each of the drivers in the plurality of different drivers. A merging driver receives the single access operation, and in response to the single access operation, the merging driver accesses the plurality of different drivers through the API.
