Applications: Generally applications depend on the file- and mime handling provided by the data management domain.
- Connectivity: The virtual file system in data management is depending on the libraries provided by the connectivity. They are used when hiding the connecting to Bluetooth and network folders.
- System: Data management uses the system hardware information provided by the system domain.
- Multimedia Framework: Uses Data Management to access the file on different drivers and devices.
