Thread: OT: Db2 connection pooling?
Hey folks, Sorry for the OT - we are most of the way through a Db2 --> PG migration that is some 18 months in the making so far. We've got maybe another 3 to 6 months to go before we are complete, and in the meantime have identified the need for connection pooling in Db2, a-la the excellent pgbouncer tool we have implemented on PG We are 100% CentOS based. Anyone know of anything? From my process list it looks like Db2 V8.1 - my DBA is away at the moment so I cannot ask him :) root 3370 1 0 2009 ? 00:18:38 /opt/IBM/db2/V8.1/bin/db2fmcd thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

And the cost of upgrading to that was part of why we decided to move to PG. So I should have been more specific - a FREE connection pooler :-) -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

There might be other options that are more language oriented (java for instance) than db oriented. Or maybe some intermediate layer for pooling that's db agnostic.
