Connection pooling in Couchbase SDK (spymemcached)

Java SDK
1

Hi,
We are in process of evaluating couchbase. Following are the list of questions with reference to couchbase.

  1. Does the couchbase client has internal connection pooling ocncept ? If yes, how can we tune the connection pool ? If not, can someone provide a sample code to write custom code.
  2. CouchbaseClient is thread-safe. How many concurrent thread it can serve ? What is the upper limit for no of thread accessing the client object concurrently ?
    Regards,

Hello,

The short answer is YES, you have inside the Couchbase SDK (and Spymemcached) a complete resource management framework based on non blocking I/O (Netty to be precise).

So in your application you just need to use a singleton. I am inviting you to read this blog post about Java SDK internals:
