Is it possible to find the source of website data?

When a website is constantly updating it's information from a data source, is it possible to find out what or where that data source is?
An example of what I'm talking about is stock prices. I'm curious to learn for educational purposes.
It depends how the site has implemented the solution. If it's server-side, you probably won't be able to find out. If it's in javascript, you could find out by looking at the page sources, such as in Chrome -> Inspect. But you'll need to know your way around.

Do you have to host your data with MapQuest?

From what I've read so far, it seems like the only way for me to map custom data points from my own dataset is to host that data with MapQuest. Am I correct in that or have I just not read deep enough?
And if it's possible, does anyone have a link to more information about how to go about it? Their API documentation is subpar.
Thanks :)
Disclaimer: I work at MapQuest
While the MapQuest Data Manager makes it easy to store custom data with MapQuest so that you can query it through the Search API, you don't have to store data with us in order to show custom points on a map.
Are you trying to do something along the lines of storing data in MySQL or PostgreSQL and then use something like PHP to query your own database, loop through the results, and then show the results on a MapQuest map using the JavaScript API? Unfortunately I don't have any easy/quick examples that show how to do that, but it is possible.
The forums on the Developer Network are also good place to look to see if others have had issues similar to the one that you are facing.
Also, let me know exactly which MapQuest APIs/tools you are using and I will do my best to provide more information depending on what you need.

Does anybody know how to "fix" the map on a Foursquare business listing to show the correct location?

I cannot determine the exact orgin of the data... Google maps show our location correctly, but Foursquare is using a mapping system that yields incorrect results... BAAAAD for business, with no intuitive way to correct the problem!
I don't do much with Foursquare, but I've had this same problem with other mapping services and I know it can be a pain to resolve. Foursquare may only use Twitter for their support, but they are pretty quick about getting back to you. For kicks I summarized the problem you are having in a tweet like this:
If you have my business address correct but it is showing wrong on the map, how do I correct this?
Within a few minutes, they replied:
No worries. Send us the URL to your Foursquare listing and we'll take care of it. Thanks for your cooperation!
Sounds like you just need to tweet them the address and let them know it's wrong and they'll update it for you.

Import Google Calendar using SSIS

Does anyone know of a way to import Google Calendar entries into a database using SSIS. I know I can export Calendars using the ICal format - but there is no native way to parse these files in SSIS. The only way I can think of doing it is to write a script component to parse the file. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience doing something like this what would be the best way to get the information.
I know this question was asked a long time ago, but hopefully it helps someone. You can also export your calendar as xml. Then you might be able to use SSIS with an XML source without the need to come up with script/ parser. Good Luck.

What is database /DBMS "patch access"?

Could not find this term very easily on google.
I assume it's the ability to patch a DBMS with an update without stopping service.
Is this correct? If not, please guide me.
Thanks in advance.

Patch Access usually refers to a service to (preferrable easily) get access to relevant patches (for your dbms in this case).
