Prepared Statements along with Connection Pooling

Question

I have a question regarding general use of Prepared Statement along with connection pooling.

Prepared Statements are generally tied to one connection only.In our app

Answer 1

This sounds like an unusual way to use your connection pool. Even though the connections are in a pool, they should only be used by one thread at a time. I tend to create the prepared statement and use it very close to the point of creation. Also, some JDBC drivers now support Statement caching which reduces the overhead of using it in this way.
