Telerik DataSource is a non-UI component that consumes raw data and processes the data operations for controls such as ListView and Chart. The control performs sorting, filtering and grouping saving developers’ time and efforts to build the functionality themselves.
The Xamarin.iOS DataSource can consume various data - from arrays with simple items and business objects, to a dictionaries coming from various sources, such as web services that return data in JSON format. You can assign several data controls to a single DataSource instance thus allowing the selected items of the data controls to be synchronized.
