<p>This module makes it possible to use <a class="reference external" href="https://pgbouncer.github.io/">PgBouncer</a> as a connection pooler
for odoo.</p>
<div class="section" id="why-isn-t-odoo-s-connection-pooling-good-enough">
<h1>Why isnt odoos connection pooling good enough?</h1>
<p>Odoos builtin connection pooling works at process level: each Odoo process
has its own <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/12.0/odoo/sql_db.py#L525">ConnectionPool</a>, limited to <tt class="docutils literal">db_maxconn</tt>.</p>
<p>It does the job of re-using open connections available in the pool.
But it never closes these connections, <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/12.0/odoo/sql_db.py#L593">unless reaching db_maxconn</a>.</p>
<p>In practice, we observe that each odoo worker will end up
with up to 3 open connection in its pool.
With 10 http workers, thats up to 30 connection continuously open just
for one single instance.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="here-comes-pgbouncer">
<h1>Here comes PgBouncer</h1>
<p>PgBouncer will help to limit this number of open connections,
by sharing a pool of connections at the instance level, between
all workers. Odoo workers will still have up to 3 open connections,
but these will be connections to PgBouncer, that on its side will
close unnecessary connections to pg.</p>
<p>This has proven to help performances on Odoo deployments with
multiple instances.</p>
<p>It allows you to define how resources should be shared,
according to your priorities, e.g. :</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>key odoo instance on host A can open up to 30 connections</li>
<li>while odoo instance on host B, dedicated to reports,
can open up to 10 connections only</li>
</ul>
<p>And most importantly, it helps you to ensure that
<tt class="docutils literal">max_connections</tt> will never be reached on pg server side.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="why-is-this-module-needed">
<h1>Why is this module needed?</h1>
<p>When configuring PgBouncer, you can choose between 2 transaction pooling modes:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><cite>pool_mode = session</cite></li>
<li><cite>pool_mode = transaction</cite></li>
</ul>
<p>If we choose <cite>pool_mode = session</cite>, then one server connection will be tied
to a given odoo process until its death, which is exactly what were trying
to change. Thus, to release the server connection once the transaction is
complete, we use <cite>pool_mode = transaction</cite>.</p>
<p>This works fine, except for Odoos longpolling features that relies
on the <a class="reference external" href="https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/sql-notify.html">LISTEN/NOTIFY</a> mechanism from pg, which is <a class="reference external" href="https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PgBouncer">not compatible</a> with that
mode.</p>
<p>To be more precise, <cite>NOTIFY</cite> statements are properly transfered by PgBouncer
in that mode; only the <cite>LISTEN</cite> statement isnt (because it needs to keep the
server connection open).</p>
<p>So for the unique “listening” connection per instance that requires this
statement (<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/12.0/addons/bus/models/bus.py#L166">here</a>), we need odoo to connect directly to the pg server, bypassing
PgBouncer.</p>
<p>Thats what this module implements, by overriding the relevant method
of the <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/12.0/addons/bus/models/bus.py#L105">Dispatcher</a>.</p>

<h1>Installation</h1>
<p>You dont need to install this module in the database(s) to enable it.</p>
<p>But you need to load it server-wide:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>By starting Odoo with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--load=web,bus_alt_connection</span></tt></li>
<li>Or by updating its configuration file:</li>

</div>
<div class="section" id="configuration">
<h1>Configuration</h1>
<p>You need to define how to connect directly to the database:</p>
<ul>
<li><p class="first">Either by defining environment variables:</p>
