/**
 * An entry container which provides the content of one or more sub-trees.
 * <p>
 * A data provider can be:
 * <ul>
 * <li>a simple data source such as a local back-end, a remote LDAP server or a
 * local LDIF file.
 * <li>used to route operations. This is the case for load balancing and
 * distribution.
 * <li>combine and transform data from underlying data providers. For example,
 * DN mapping, attribute renaming, attribute value transformations, etc.
 * </ul>
 * Data providers operate in two states:
 * <ul>
 * <li>initialized
 * <li>accepting requests
 * </ul>
 * Data providers are created in the <i>initialized</i> state. In this state a
 * data provider has validated its configuration and registered support for
 * off-line services such as export, import, backup, and restore if available.
 * <p>
 * A data provider transitions to the <i>accepting requests</i> state when the
 * {@link #startDataProvider()} method is invoked. In this state a data provider
 * has acquired any remaining resources that it needs in order to be fully
 * operational. This may include connections to underlying data providers. See
 * the documentation for {@link #startDataProvider()} for more information.
 * <p>
 * A data provider transitions back to the <i>initialized</i> state using the
 * {@link #stopDataProvider()} method. This occurs when the data provider is no
 * longer needed in order process client requests, but may still be needed in
 * order to perform off-line services such as import, export, backup, and
 * restore.
 * <p>
 * If data provider is disabled or deleted from the server configuration or if
 * the server is shutdown, then the {@link #finalizeDataProvider()} method is
 * invoked. This method should ensure that the data provider is stopped and no
 * longer available for off-line services such as import, export, backup, and
 * restore.
