A connection pool is a cache of datasource connections maintained by Unwired Server, so that the connections can be reused when the Unwired Server receives future requests for data.
Connection pools are used to enhance the performance and efficiency of datasource connections, as well as to simplify connection maintenance.
With connection pools, after a connection is created, it is placed in the pool and it is used over again so that a new connection does not have to be established. If all the connections are being used, AND the maxPoolSize value you configured for a connection pool has not been reached, a new connection is made and is added to the pool.
If Unwired Server uses the connection information defined for a server, a name appears in the Value column Connection Pool property when you view the connection information for either a mobile business object or an operation.
