Connection pooling options with JDBC: DBCP vs C3P0
- by Dema
What is the best connection pooling library available for Java/JDBC?
I'm considering the 2 main candidates (free / open-source):
Apache DBCB - http://commons.apache.org/dbcp/
C3P0 - http://sourceforge.net/projects/c3p0
I've read a lot about them in blogs and other forums but could not reach a decision.
Is there any relevant alternatives to this two?
