Passivation and Activation in ADF (Application Module )

By
1. For performance reasons, ADF keeps a pool of application modules in memory. It tries to give each session the same application module as the session used during the last request; however, this might not be possible during peak load of your application. 2. In this case, ADF saves the application modules state in a database table so the application module can be used by another session. This is called passivation . 3. When the first session needs the application module again, its state is retrieved from the database process known as activation . 4.

A data source is a vendor-independent encapsulation of a database server connection on the application server. 1. Data sources ( JNDI name) offer advantages over a JDBC URL connection because the data source can be tuned, reconfigured, or remapped without changing the deployed application. 2. JDB...
