Client Socket Pooling
As per the EJB Spec FAQ listed below I am allowed to create a client socket in an EJB ( I will be using stateless session beans).
Why can an enterprise bean not listen to or accept connections on a socket?
...Enterprise beans can be network socket clients, and so they can
use other network resources (including other
enterprise bean servers) todo their jobs. .....
My question is if i can pool them in similar fashion as Database Connections. I have to perform a look up across the network and I really don't have any idea how often this will occur and I would like to save the over head of creating a new connection each time.
