Connection Pooling

TIBCO BusinessEvents creates a pool of JDBC connections for every JDBC Connection shared resource that uses the JDBC connection type. The maximum size of this pool is specified by the Maximum Connections configuration field.

Resources such as backing stores and database concepts that use this JDBC Connection resource are given a connection from the pool. Once the maximum number of connections is reached, resources requesting a connection cannot proceed. Once a connection is freed by an activity, the connection is returned to the pool. Connections that are left open get eventually time out and be closed. These connections can be reopened at a later time, until the maximum number of connections specified in this field is reached.

For backing store connections, you can use additional connection pool properties, which override equivalent settings in the JDBC Connection resource.

TIBCO BusinessEvents version 6.x onwards the default database pool for DBConcepts is JDBC. To set this to Oracle, set the property be.dbconcepts.use.oracle.pool to true in the CDD file for your project.
