Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system enables control of database applications. The system comprises a computer system including a database application to provide access to a database system, and at least one processor. The computer system requests retrieval of application specific property information for the database application from a data repository, and applies the retrieved application specific property information to the database application to control operation of the database application. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for controlling database applications in substantially the same manner described above.

Abstract: Provided are techniques for, under control of an agent: receiving a request from a first database client to access a service from a set of services, wherein the agent is associated with the service; receiving a request from a second database client to access the service, wherein the agent is shared by the first database client and the second database client; combining information from the first database client and the second database client; and sending the combined information to the service using a single physical connection in a client-side Client Management Extension (CMX) connection, wherein the first database client and the second database client share the single physical connection.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for database driver for the global, dynamic, remote and centralized configuration of database drivers. In an embodiment of the invention the system includes a remote controller host and a central controller disposed in the remote controller host. A plurality of application hosts and a plurality of applications are disposed in each of the application hosts. A single attachment agent is disposed in each of the application hosts, the single attachment agent being coupled to each of the plurality of applications in the application hosts. The central controller provides each of the attachment agents with information regarding how to connect the database driver to the central controller.
