Use Data Pages
Data Pages are powerful and follows many powerful design patterns, use Data pages when ever necessary. Data Page stores the data on the clipboard based on the selected mode (Thread, Requestor, Node) and this reduces the number of DB calls every time. Data Page should be used when ever we want to run a report definition, or using any Integration connectors like REST, SOAP or even used for performing any back end processing.As the data page is declarative, no place holder is required to call a data page, a reference to a data page is enough for its creation and loading.
