Best Practice to write Connection string for heavy traffic ASP.NET Web Application
- by hungrycoder
What is the best way to define connection string for a web application that has minimum 500 live users on the internet in terms of connection pooling.
And load factors to consider?
Suppose I have connection string as follows:
initial catalog=Northwind; Min Pool Size=20;Max Pool Size=500; data source=localhost; Connection Timeout=30; Integrated security=sspi"
as Max Pool Size is 500 and as live users exceed 500 say 520 will the remaining 20 users experience slower page load??
Or what if I have connection string as follows which doesn't talks anything about pooling or Connection time out? How the application behaves then?
initial catalog=Northwind; data source=localhost; Integrated security=sspi"
I'm using "Using statements" however to access the MYSQL database.
