How to setup JNDI Database Connection pool in Tomcat - Spring Tutorial Example
Setting the JNDI Database Connection pool in
Spring and Tomcat is pretty easy. Tomcat server
documentation gives enough information on how
to setup connection pool in Tomcat 5, 6 or 7.
Here we will use Tomcat 7 along with spring
framework for creating a connection pool in
Tomcat server and accessing them in Spring
using JNDI code. In our last article, we have
seen how to setup database connection pool in
Spring for core Java application which doesn't
run on a web server or application server and
doesn't have managed J2EE container. but if you
are developing a web application than its better to use server managed connection pool and
access them using JNDI. Spring configuration will be generic and just based on JNDI name of
Datasource so it will work on any J2EE Server e.g. Glassfish, WebLogic, JBoss or
WebSphere until JNDI name is same.

Btw, Tomcat is my favorite web server and I use it a lot on development as it comes integrated
with IDE like Eclipse and Netbeans. I am using it for all test and development purpose, and
many companies even run Tomcat in Production for hosting Java web application.

 It's simple, fast and very robust, though beware with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen
space in tomcat, which can cause a memory leak in Java application. It usually happens due to
ThreadLocal variables and JDBC drivers but you can surely avoid that by knowing more

How to use JNDI database connection pool in Tomcat and

Spring
There three steps to configure and run JNDI Datasource Connection pool for any Java Web
application:

1) Configure data source in Server and create JNDI name.

2) Configure web.xml
3) Configure Spring bean with JNDI Datasource
4) Include JDBC driver library on Server lib e.g. tomcat/lib

In order to create JNDI DataSource on J2EE web server you need to follow server
documentation. On Tomcat 6 you can simply put following piece of XML in context.xml to
create Tomcat managed database connection pool:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> Follow by Email

In order to access any server resource from your web application, you need to specify the JNDI
resources in web.xml.

You can use the following XML to declare JNDI Datasource in web.xml: Follow

 Now your web application will see JNDI Datasource created in tomcat with name
jdbc/springDataSource.

Btw, if you are not familiar with JNDI and other Java EE concepts then I first suggest you go
through Java Web Fundamentals course by Kevin Jones on Pluarlsight. It's not free, as you
need a Plurlasight membership but you can access it free by opting for Pluralsight's 10-day free
