Up to today I have been storing my Hibernate db connection in a session
bean called DBConn, but I am finding that it is timing out quite often
even though I have database connection pooling setup through Tomcat JNDI
(using MySQL as DB).
What I am wondering is what practices others use in storing their DB
connection in JSF apps. My thought is to grab a new connection at each
request vs trying to store it in the FacesContext. I was going to do
this by utilizing phase listeners - open my Hibernate session in the
"Restore View" phase and close the session in the "Render Response"
phase. This way there is no way I will ever get a timed out DB
connection is what I am thinking.
What are other's thoughts on this, and what are others doing for a
scalable DB connection mechanism?
TIA,
