This paper discusses our experiences
of designing and implementing a pure JAVA database proxy server with a JDBC
compatible driver for Intranet/Internet database application development. In
particular, we present a shared database connection strategy and flexible
caching facilities to address the scalability problem. Web clients with the
same access privilege can maintain their logical connections with shared physical
connections to the database. Thus, not only a large number of users can be
entertained by limited physical resource, the connection cost is also not
indulged for each individual client. Web clients can also express their cache
requirements explicitly in the JDBC protocol so that a large number of clients can
be served with improved response time. The effectiveness of such strategies is
demonstrated through a set of experiments.
