I dont think we can compare connection pool and data source.

Both serves to access the database thru our application.

If you create a connection pool in your web/app server then you can use them and access the DB.

Data source in turn will get DB connection thru the connection pool. If you have multiple connection pool (for round robin / failure handling) then it is easy to configure thru data source.

Actually to use connection objects in the connection pool we need datasource object .
if you take weblogic , if u want to contact to connection pool , u must get data source object. Thats all.
