Axiom Data Services Gateway

This project is a "data services gateway" which allows rich-client applications such as JavaScript or Dart based browser apps to use arbitrary oData, SQL, or other data services in an authenticated, secure, user-configurable manner.

Configuration Layout

• axiomds.conf - optional, the main configuration file, can include other files
