Client Pool

Definitions

1. A managed set of reusable client instances or connections used to communicate with a backend service efficiently. Client pools reduce setup overhead and control concurrency, but they also need sensible sizing and lifecycle handling to avoid exhaustion or idle resource waste.

   In plain English: A reusable pool of client connections or instances used to talk to a backend service.

   Example: "The service stopped creating a new database client per request and moved to a client pool with bounded concurrency and health checks."
