Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for connection concentration in a database environment. A transparency engine provided between client applications and a database can include a connection pool (e.g., UCP connection pool). The transparency engine can operate as a proxy engine for the database and as a session abstraction layer for the client applications, to enable the client applications to utilize features provided by the connection pool without code changes. The transparency engine can receive application connections from the client applications, and concentrate the application connections on a smaller number of database connections maintained in the connection pool.
