postgresql95-pgpool2-353.5.4

It places an intermediary between PostgreSQL clients and servers so database connections and related traffic can be handled through a single service. postgresql95-pgpool2-35 provides pgpool-II’s connection-pooling function for PostgreSQL environments, reusing connections between clients and database servers instead of creating a separate server connection for every request. Applications and database clients use it as middleware in deployments where connection handling needs to be centralized.

The software can balance database requests across replicated PostgreSQL servers, making it useful for environments that maintain multiple server copies. It also limits connections that go beyond the permitted level, helping control excessive client demand. These capabilities address three operational concerns at once: managing reusable connections, distributing traffic across replicas, and preventing connection counts from exceeding the allowed threshold.

Database administrators and teams operating PostgreSQL-backed services can use it between application clients and their database infrastructure, especially when replicated servers or heavy concurrent access make direct connection handling difficult. Command Prompt, Inc. publishes this commercial software for Linux, and version 3.5.4 is the current release. It requires Linux with snapd and supports amd64, arm64, armhf, and i386 systems.
