I'm concerned about other problems. We may have 30,000 concurrent users, sharing 5 or so named users. My big concern is maintenance and tracing.
Has anyone worked with this type of environment? How do you build tracing into the front end so I can tell which sid, serial# is experience problems? The middle tier is complete, so any changes I recommend need to be moderate since we have strict deadlines. Anyone do anything like this? Front end is complete. However, we signed a new client who has radically more users than we have had in the past. This limits my ability to add features that help maintain the database. ----- Original Message ----- To: "Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2004 11:14 AM > Ryan: > > Same named user with large number of connections is not a problem. > Things will become bad only IFF the large number of different users > using the same set of public synonymns. > > KG > > --- Ryan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > how do you feel about connection pooling?
