3.1.1 Abstract Data Model

This section describes a conceptual model of possible data organization that an implementation maintains to participate in this protocol. The described organization is provided to facilitate the explanation of how the protocol behaves. This document does not mandate that implementations adhere to this model as long as their external behavior is consistent with that described in this document.

This protocol includes the following Abstract Data Model elements, which are directly accessed from Access Services Data Run Time protocol as specified in [MS-ADR] section 3.1.1:

  • Session

  • Request

  • Source

  • Updatable Source

The following elements are specific to this protocol:

  • Page: A partial result set, which is part of a sequence of partial result sets of the same size.
