Contains the connectionstring to the database

In example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <connectionStrings>   <add name="DVIContext" connectionString="Data Source=(local)\sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=DVI5;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> </connectionStrings>

where:
Data Source is the hostname (and optional instance name) of the SQL Server, and
Initial Catalog is the name of the database
