I'm kind of curious why 50 diifferent databases, and not one database
with some distinguishing data in the tables... are these for 50
different customers or websites or something, and never the data shall
meet? Your request for a connecction pool makes it sounds like one
program would be accessing all 50 of these databases, how does it decide
which, whats the differentiating characteristic?

Normally a pool is used when one program is repeatedly
connecting/disconnecting from a single database, classically like
webpages... with 50 different databases, you'd need 50 different pools.
