title: Configuring a Spring Cloud Data Flow Task with its own Database
body: <p>I have a task application with its own database that I'd like to run in Spring Cloud Data Flow.</p>
  
  <p>My problem is that SCDF overwrites the datasource configuration in the task with the datasource configuration for SCDF. (Both databases are Oracle DBs.)</p>
  
  <p>My task should write to a different database (but I also want to know its status in SCDF database).</p>
  
  <p>How is it possible to configure my task to connect to its own database as well as to SCDF's database?</p>
