      \brief This is a singleton for managing all data source instances available in the system.

      Prefer using the methods from this singleton instead of using the data source factory
      because it keeps track of the data sources available in the system.
      
      Another reason to use it in your application is that the application can choose any
      strategy to label data sources, for examples, using a
      descriptive title provided by the user or using an unique-universal-identifier (uid) generated by an algorithm.
