Improvements

Alfabet 11.9 uses SQL server connection pooling for connections to the database server. With connection pooling, opening and closing a connection is no longer required for each database request, but all requests are handed over to a pool of persistent connections. Two new fields have been added to the Database Settings tab of the server alias configuration to change the minimum and maximum number of concurrent connections allowed in the connection pool. The default values provide optimum connection pool usage in most environments. the minimum value must be 1 during update of the meta-model via AMM file or database restore from ADBZ file. For performance enhancement of the Alfabet Web Application the value can be set to 10 or higher in production environments.
