There is JNDI support available, so that you can declare <Resource> if
you provide an appropriate factory="" for it.

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html

The factories are provided for some standard resource types (like
java.sql.DataSource).

Actually, Tomcat does not implement that factory by itself, but uses
Apache Commons DBCP library from http://commons.apache.org/ which
itself is based on Apache Commons Pool library.
