I have an app which makes many script calls to Oralce in any one session via ODBC from the client side. Response times can range from a couple of seconds to several seconds - 15 seconds has been known. Each function (button/agent etc.) does a Connect, Execute, Disconnect.
I have been asked to investigate the possibility of doing 1 global connect on database open, then every piece of code only reconnects if the connection is not available, and a global disconnect when the database is closed. Any thoughts/comments on this approach - is it even possible?
Thanks.
