Connect SOAP & JMS Connection Pool Handling

Report

Hi ,

We are using TIBCO as middleware in our application to access external service via Connect-SOAP and Connect-JMS methods.

TIBCO team had reported that PEGA is opening multiple connections and which is causing overhead on the TIBCO side.

I would like to understand how connection are configured and managed within PEGA. As far as I am aware we don't have connection pool setting for connect requestors like we have for database.

Please share your thoughts.

For Connect-SOAP, Apache HTTP Connection pool is used. 

PRPC provides the following two DSS to tune the apache connection pool.

options to set apache http connection pool size for R-C-SOAP

Owning ruleset: Pega-IntegrationEngine
Setting purpose: Axis2_Max_Connections
Value: 1000 (default)

Owning ruleset: Pega-IntegrationEngine
Setting purpose: Axis2_Max_HostConnections
Value: 100 (default)

JMS Connections are controlled via the container / application server JMS resources like TopicConnectionFactory / QueueConnectionFactory and not by PRPC code.

Hope the above information helps.

Hi Lochan/@nkur, I have received Hfix-7709 (SR-B47305). Can someone advise if this would address our below expectation.?

My understanding below.
* Whenever there is a connect(SOAP/JMS) call from PEGA, a connection is opened with integration layer (in our case its TIBCO). As soon as service is completed, connection will be closed. Connection open and closure is being taken care by PEGA. So on a given day, if there are 10,000 connect calls in total, from PEGA 10,000 connection will be opened and closed. Correct me if this is wrong.
 
Now, our expectation is to Establish a standard connection number of connections (eg..5000) And these 5000 connection should never be closed and reused for other requests.

Take a look at Java code behind invokeAxis2 activity...Pega shows you how its interacting with application server (container) to initiate connections from the JVM. Pega does not directly manage connections.
