∟Using Connection Pool with JDBC

This chapter provides tutorial examples on JDBC connection pooling. Topics include introduction to database connection pool; examples of using DBCP and C3P0 Java libraries.

What Is Database Connection Pool

Commons DBCP for Connection Pooling

Connection Pooling with Commons DBCP BasicDataSource

Connection Pooling with Commons DBCP PoolingDriver

C3P0 for Connection Pooling

Connection Pooling with C3P0 ComboPooledDataSource

Connection Pooling with C3P0 DataSources

Takeaways:

Database Connection Pool manages a set of JDBC connection objects to be reused to avoid repeated connection opening and closing operations.
Commons DBCP is a popular open source JDBC database connection pool library developed by Apache.
The easiest way to use Commons DBCP library for connection pooling is to use the org.apache.commons.dbcp2.BasicDataSource class.
C3P0 is a mature and highly concurrent JDBC Connection pooling library developed by Steve Waldman.
The easiest way to use C3P0 library for connection pooling is to use the com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource class.
