1. Business Connectivity Services. The Business Connectivity Services (BCS) used to be called the Business Data Catalog (BDC). It provides access to your external data sources such as databases, external business systems, and web services. Using BCS, External Content Types can be created that allow read/write access back to the external data sources. External lists, which operate much like normal lists, can be created in SharePoint from these External Content Types so you can have access to these external systems right inside of SharePoint. Client applications such as Office or third party applications can also connect to the external data source using the ECT without writing any proprietary code. There is also an offline caching mechanism to enable offline access to External Content Types.
