A Data Source is a system component that provides data sets (to support data-driven processes and data-driven systems).
- Context:
- It can generate Data Content through data generation mechanisms.
- It can provide Data Access via access interfaces.
- It can maintain Data Format through format specifications.
- It can ensure Data Quality via quality controls.
- It can support Data Availability through delivery mechanisms.
- It can often include Data Schema with structural elements.
- It can often enable Data Discovery through metadata services.
- It can often support Data Integration via integration protocols.
- It can often maintain Data Freshness through update mechanisms.
- ...
- It can range from being a Batch Data Source to being a Real-Time Data Source, depending on its delivery mode.
- It can range from being a Static Data Source to being a Dynamic Data Source, depending on its update frequency.
- It can range from being a Simple Data Source to being a Complex Data Source, depending on its data structure.
- It can range from being a Raw Data Source to being a Processed Data Source, depending on its processing level.
- It can range from being a Single Data Source to being a Federated Data Source, depending on its distribution model.
- It can range from being a Structured Data Source to being an Unstructured Data Source, depending on its data format.
- It can range from being a Point Data Source to being a Data Flow Source, depending on its temporal continuity.
- ...
- It can integrate with Data Consumer for data consumption.
- It can connect to Data Pipeline for data flow.
- It can support Data Repository for data storage.
- ...

- Counter-Examples:
- Computation Resource, which processes rather than provides data.
- Data Sink, which consumes rather than provides data.
- Data Cache, which temporarily stores rather than originates data.
- Data Proxy, which forwards rather than generates data.

- Data feed is a mechanism for users to receive updated data from data sources. It is commonly used by real-time applications in point-to-point settings as well as on the World Wide Web. The latter is also called web feed. News feed is a popular form of web feed. RSS feed makes dissemination of blogs easy. Product feeds play increasingly important role in e-commerce and internet marketing, as well as news distribution, financial markets, and cybersecurity. Data feeds usually require structured data that include different labelled fields, such as "title" or "product".

At the present time unstructured data, e.g. HTML pages, dominate the Web. As a result, data feeds have the potential to make a bigger impact on the Web in the future.
