Best to use a connection pool. Look at the Data Sources in Tomcat. Wade
-----Original Message----- From: Carlos Pereira [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2003 12:46 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: JDBC Connection question Hi list, my application currently uses ONE connection object to communicate with the database. The connection is set with an initializer servlet (load_on_stratup=0), and all users use that connection to retrieve data. Is this the best approach, or should i create a connection per user? Why? Where can i know more? The security system works on top of the database, so that's not a problem. I'm more concerned with performance and concurrency.
