My situation is not so clean as that in that my users don’t literally have 
database accounts.  But that doesn’t mean I can’t learn what the database 
user/schema is from the authenticated user name.  I may be able to work with 
the framework you point to for impersonation and get a solution that works for 
me.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Walter

Hi Walter,
I don't think I've ever heard of any connection pooling library able to limit 
the total amount
of connections across several pools.
A Google search for "limit number of jdbc connections across multiple 
connection pools" also comes out empty as far as I can tell.

If in your use case there is a correspondence between a GeoServer user and a 
database user, maybe you can use
a single connection pool, and impersonation to change the current user:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/database/sqlsession.html#data-sqlsession

Just thinking out loud here :-)

Cheers
Andrea

Thanks but I don't yet see how this would solve my problem?  When I look at the 
tutorial it shows setting up a tomcat pool that connects to oracle under a 
specific user name and password.

But in my case I want to limit the number of connections to the Oracle instance 
itself independent of the user id and password.  For example let's say I have 
100 geoserver workspaces, each of which manage a pool of connections to a 
specific Oracle schema (with all such schemas in one oracle instance).  Each 
such pool would login to Oracle under a different user and password.  I might 
want each pool to have as many as 50 active connections, and yet I want to see 
that regardless, no more than 200 total connections (in all the pools combined) 
will be created.

In the above scenario of 100 workspaces with 50 connections each you might 
normally see as many as 5,000 connections.  I'm looking for something that will 
see that regardless, the total connections are kept below a limit of say 200.  
So three particular pools might create 50 connections and if a 4th pool tries 
to create a new connection (to this specific oracle instance regardless of 
schema) that connection will block waiting for the limit to go below 200.

Does JNDI create a way of doing that?

Thanks, Walter

Walter,

Have a look at using a JNDI connection.
