I would suggest that you refer to the doc that is included with Tomcat 7. I don't know if that one is up-to-date anymore. https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jdbc-pool.html > > However, the standard datasource configuration page mentions that tomcat > still uses dbcp by default: > > http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html > > Is the 'new' Tomcat JBDC connection pool suitable for adoption, and is there > a timescale for making this the default pool? I personally prefer the new connection pool, tomcat-jdbc. I like some of the features it add, in particular interceptors. Plus, DBCP is known to have issues with scaling and concurrency, the new pool fixes that. That being said, if you're running a small site, you may never hit those issues, so it may not matter which one you pick.
