The ResourcePool is a generic connection caching and pooling management
|
|
facility. It might be used in an Apache/mod_perl environment to support
|
|
connection caching like Apache::DBI for non-DBI resources
|
|
(e.g. Net::LDAP). It's also useful in a stand alone perl application
|
|
to handle connection pools.
|
|
|
|
The key benefit of ResourcePool is the generic design which makes it
|
|
easily extensible to new resource types.
|
|
|
|
The ResourcePool has a simple check mechanism to detect and close broken
|
|
connections (e.g. if the database server was restarted) and opens new
|
|
connections if possible.
|
|
|
|
If you are new to ResourcePool you should go to the ResourcePool::BigPicture
|
|
documentation which provides the best entry point to this module.
|
|
|
|
The ResourcePool itself handles always exactly equivalent connections
|
|
(e.g. connections to the same server with the same user-name and password)
|
|
and is therefore not able to do a load balancing. The
|
|
ResourcePool::LoadBalancer is able to do a advanced load balancing across
|
|
different servers and increases the overall availability by applying a
|
|
failover policy if there is a server breakdown.
