Note: I know about this thread but it is quite old and moreover, the solution did not work for me.
I am using App Engine along with Cloud SQL and I would like to share a pool of open connections between all of the application's current users. I have tried several connection pool implementations and they all work perfectly with the local development server, however, when deployed to the cloud, they fail. I suppose that the reason is App Engine's restricted "sandbox" environment. Does anyone know about JDBC connection pool working on App Engine?

JDBC 3.0 API Framework. The JDBC 3.0 API provides a general framework with "hooks" to support connection pooling rather than specifying a particular connection pooling implementation. In this way, third-party vendors or users can implement the specific caching or pooling algorithms that best fit their needs.
You reuse a prior database connection, in a new context to avoid the cost of setting up a new database connection for each request. The primary reason to avoid using database connections is that you're application's approach to solving problems isn't structured to accommodate a database connection pool.
Initial and Minimum Pool Size: Minimum and initial number of connections maintained in the pool (default is 8) Maximum Pool Size: Maximum number of connections that can be created to satisfy client requests (default is 32)
I had to use Tomcat DBCP 1.4 (older version), because of the GAE frontend not allowing threads to live outside of request scope. Here's an example project: https://github.com/kennberg/appengine-java-connection-pool
Note that the connection pool is necessary once you have too many requests, because there is a limit on number of pending connections per instance. Re-using connections helps stay under the limit.
