IBM Informix MaxConnect enables IBM Informix Dynamic Server to support greatly increased numbers of client connections. MaxConnect is a new software tier, introduced between the database server and clients, that transparently funnels multiple client connections onto a smaller number of server connections. The database server is freed from managing thousands of client connections, which results in improved response time and decreased CPU cost for the database server.
The following features were introduced in Version 9.21 to support the IBM Informix MaxConnect product, which is separately orderable:
The database server supports MaxConnect with two new network protocols: ontliimc and onsocimc.
