The server presents a number of object types to client applications as if they were local tables. Supported object types are:
table – The object in a remote server of any class is a relational table. This is the default type.
view – The object in a remote server of any class is a view. Component Integration Services treats views as if they were local tables without any indexes.
rpc – The object in a remote server of any class is an remote procedure. Component Integration Services treats the result set from the remote procedure as a read-only table.
file – The object is an individual file within a file system.
directory – The object is a file system directory.
