    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-975?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12607832#comment-12607832 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on AS7-975:
-----------------------------------------

So highly agree. The type of db (H2) doesn't have anything to do in the name either.

Example apps would just target "defaultDS" and then user can replace that with their own better db without having to also change their example to be "correct".

> A lot of demo applications (e.g. Seam applications) that work on JBoss AS 6 and use the built-in datasource assume to find it at java:/DefaultDS. However, AS 7's default datasource is available at java:/H2DS.
> To retain backward compatibility with pre-AS7 JEE applications, I think it's a good idea to bind the default datasource to java:/DefaultDS as well. Otherwise, the applications will:
> a) need a separate build profile for AS 7
> b) fail to deploy
