Hi,
"Pooling" means that a connection is kept open after you close it and is
reuser later, therefore both ends are involved. In the client it;s handle by
the provider and in the server by the SQL server, even as I thiink that all
of the pooling features are handled in the client, the server all it sees is
a open connection, it has no ideas if the connection is being used by the
app or just kept by the data provider.
Cheers,

Where is the connection pooling done when using ADO.NET and SQL Server?
On the SQL Server or where the .NET run-time is being executed? I'm assuming
on SQL Server as this would minimize the number of connections needed in
the pool.
Thanks in advance.
