Abstract: Elastic connection pools for database nodes are described. A system receives a user request that references data in a database, and uses the user request to identify a partition of multiple partitions of the database. The system uses the identified partition to identify a database node in a cluster of database nodes. The system uses the identified database node to identify a connection pool of multiple connection pools provided by an application server. If the identified connection pool does not have any available connections to the identified database node, the system uses connection criteria to select another connection pool of the remainder of the connection pools. The system enables the user request to access the referenced data in the identified partition of the database by providing the user request with an available connection, from the other connection pool, to another database node in the cluster.
