I'm kind of curious why 50 diifferent databases, and not one database
with some distinguishing data in the tables...    are these for 50
different customers or websites or something, and never the data shall
meet?   Your request for a connecction pool makes it sounds like one
program would be accessing all 50 of these databases, how does it decide
which, whats the differentiating characteristic?

Normally a pool is used when one program is repeatedly
connecting/disconnecting from a single database, classically like
webpages... with 50 different databases, you'd need 50 different pools.

Hi  John ,

Thanks for reply ,
See i have application running already which takes data from one db and
performs.
Now i want this application should take data from the database depending on
the login id i have database designed and  running fine so its costly to
change either db or code.
If i could do this connection pool and could pick up connection as per the
login client the application can l show data and behave as per the data
associated with this client. For anther client Db Connection is different as
result db is different so here this second client will get different data as
well behavior . Like wise i may have about 50 clients in all ....
Please suggest on this ..or any other approach .

Thanks
-Bob
