Azure Database Connection Pooling - Reference

This page demonstrates a visually appealing and functional representation of the Azure Database Connection Pooling documentation. We’ve focused on creating a responsive layout for optimal viewing on various devices.

Introduction

Connection pooling is a critical optimization technique for Azure databases. It allows the database to maintain a pool of database connections, and when a request comes in, it retrieves a connection from the pool instead of creating a new one. This dramatically reduces the load on the database server.

Key Concepts

The process involves:

• Pooling requests: The database server requests connections from the pool.
• Connection Management: The pool keeps track of available connections.
• Efficient Reuse: Connections are reused as needed, reducing overhead.

Benefits

Benefits include:

• Reduced latency: Connection reuse minimizes latency.
• Lower resource consumption: Fewer connections mean less database server load.
• Improved scalability: Easier to scale the database by adjusting pool size.
