You have a server that limits the number of data connections.
What should you use to optimize connectivity when the number of users exceeds the
number of available connections?
A.
Connection timeouts
B.
Named pipes
C.
Normalization
D.
Connection pooling
Explanation:
In software engineering, a connection pool is a cache of database connections maintained
so that the connections can be reused when future requests to the database are required.
A
I don’t believe that it’s Timeouts, as timeout attribute only determines how much time is allowed when making the initial connection. Once the connection is made (within time out range), user can stay on as long as they like, regardless of the timeout value. This is my understanding, i’m no expert in Databases.
