摘要

A system and method can support using a data source to connect an application server with a clustered database. The clustered database includes a plurality of database instances and is associated with a notification service. The notification service can be used by the clustered database to broadcast notifications that describe a state change in the plurality of database instances. The data source includes a connection pool, which manages a set of connections to the plurality of database instances in the clustered database. The data source operates to register with the notification service to receive notifications on the change of the clustered database, wherein the application server operates to configure and manage connection to the clustered database, adaptively according to the state change of the clustered database at run time.
