Abstract
Methods and system for managing resource connections are described. In one embodiment, an initial user request to access data stored at a resource is received. The initial user request is generated by an application of a plurality of applications having access to the resource. An existing connection from the application is utilized to provide the data to the application. A current user request to access data stored at the resource is received. Based on a determination that the existing connection is unavailable, the current user request is assigned to a waiter queue. A number of requests assigned to the waiter queue during a pre-defined time period is determined to exceed a threshold. A new connection from the application to the resource is created based on the availability of a further connection to the resource and the exceeding of the threshold.
