=== Modify the {{book.project.name}} Datasource
After declaring your JDBC driver, you have to modify the existing datasource configuration that {{book.project.name}} uses
to connect to the built-in embedded database. You'l need to change it to connect to your new external database. You'll do
this within the same configuration file and XML block that you registered your JDBC driver. Here's an example
that set's up the connection to your new database:
.Declare Your JDBC Drivers
[source,xml]
----
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:datasources:4.0">
<datasources>
...
<datasource jndi-name="java:jboss/datasources/KeycloakDS" pool-name="KeycloakDS" enabled="true" use-java-context="true">
<connection-url>jdbc:postgresql://localhost/keycloak</connection-url>
<driver>postgresql</driver>
<pool>
<max-pool-size>20</max-pool-size>
</pool>
<security>
<user-name>William</user-name>
<password>password</password>
</security>
</datasource>
...
</datasources>
</subsystem>
----
Search for the +datasource+ definition for +KeycloakDS+. You'll first need to specify the +connection-url+. The
documentation for your vendor's JDBC implementation will tell you the connection URL you should provide there.
Next define the +driver+ you will use. This is the logical name of the JDBC driver you declared in the previous section of this
chapter.
It is expensive to open a new connection to a database ever time you want to perform a transaction. To compensate, the datasource
implementation maintains a pool of open connections. The +max-pool-size+ specifies the maximum number of connections it will pool.
You may want to change the value of this depending on the load of your system.
Finally, or PostgreSQL at least, you need to define the database username and password that is needed to connect to the database. You
may be worried that this is in clear text in the example. There are methods to obfuscate this, but this is beyond the
scope of this guide.
