     <Resource auth="Container"
               driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver"
               name="jdbc/AppCenterDS"
               username="APPCENTER"
               password=""
               type="javax.sql.DataSource"
               url="jdbc:derby:DERBY_DATABASES_DIR/APPCNTR"/>
