The access to IBM data sources is included with WebSphere Information Integrator OmniFind Edition entitlement. The access to non-IBM data sources will require the applicable WebSphere Information Integrator OmniFind Edition Connector. The connector enables you to access, from the crawler functionality of the program residing on one physical server, one of the specified data sources described below. Additional connector instances will require additional connector proof of entitlements.

One Connector License for an e-mail or collaboration system entitles you to access one or more servers of one specific type of a supported non-IBM e-mail or collaboration system. For example, one connector entitles you to access all the Microsoft Exchange servers that are accessible by the program within the enterprise.

A “database instance” is a single copy of data and the catalog to support it. Access to additional database instances or types will require additional connector entitlements.
