| I have a new project that will need to run at my clients multiple office locations, currently they use thin clients via a VPN, but I don't think I want to rely on it. Will ES work here for a Winform application using DB2 on OS/400 on the backend?
Thanks. |

| Yes, the ES is provider independent... you have to specify the DbDataSourceItem type to use in the ES's configuration file.

| The EnterpriseDataSourceItem essentially wraps a DbDataSourceItem and overrides the transport to send it across HTTP, so it will work with SqlDataSourceItem, OracleDataSourceItem, Db2DataSourceItem, etc.

| Nice.
Is there a "getting started with ES" whitepaper or help file somewhere, I am going to set up and test internally before pitching to my client.
Thanks. |

| No, but there are several documents within the help file that detail how to setup the web.config and datasources.config files which define everything for the ES.
