Hi All,

How exactly does a datasorce manage connections.

Suppose i have configured a datasource with max connections 50.

What will happen if 51 users login concurrently?

How do I handle a concurrent login of 100 users ?

Do i have to set the maximum connections as 100?

Will it be a performance hit.

Please help me understand this?


Thanks

If each user is holding a database connection, you've got a problem right there. Users should never "hold" database connections except for very specific types of applications. Connections in a pool are shared and swapped out all the time. Users may use 10 different distinct connections during their session without even knowing it.

The limit in your example is that a maximum of 50 concurrent processes can hold a connection at a given time. Any processes passed that will either wait or get an out of resource exception.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
