Methods that interact with remote database servers

EAServer uses a connection cache to maintain a pool of connections to database servers. A component can connect to a database server using an existing connection in a connection cache without creating a new connection.

NoteEAServer’s transactional model works only with connections obtained from the EAServer Connection Manager. Connections that you open yourself will not be affected by EAServer transactions.

For more information about coding connection management routines into components, see Chapter 26, “Using Connection Management”.
