It's not the servlet that manages the connections, but the data source, that acts also as a connection pool. For more information, see: http://commons.apache.org/dbcp/ This data source is created by the servlet. The reason why it is deprecated is that it mixes the Controller and the Model layers of the MVC model. Antonio
