The <dataProviders> section includes multiple <dataProvider> tags, each of which defines the application library, namespace, and class associated with a corresponding DataProvider subclass.  The <dataProvider> tag has the following format:

<dpname type=”namespace.class, library”>
  <param ref=”connections/$(1)”/>
</dpname>

Text displayed above in a bold, italic font should be replaced with appropriate values as follows:

• dpname – the name of the data provider (for use when referring to the data provider elsewhere in the web.config file). 
  For example: sqlserver
   
• namespace.class – the fully qualified namespace which contains the DataProvider subclass. 
  For example: Sitecore.Data.DataProviders.SqlServerDataProvider
   
• library – the name of the application library (.dll) that contains the class.  This file must be stored in the Sitecore web root /bin folder.
  For example: Sitecore.Kernel
