Figure 4.10 - Deployed database pool
Note:
You can configure a database pool programmatically using a script by invoking within this
script deploy.bat (on Windows) or deploy.sh (on Linux).
4.2.3 Executing SQL statements to load some data
Using the database pool created in the previous step (which will connect you to the
TESTDB database), create some tables and load them with data using SQL statements.
This is also done to test that the database pool is working correctly. The SQL statements to
use are shown in Listing 4.1. Note that the last column of the table is defined as an XML
column.
create table employees(empID INT, empName VARCHAR(20), empDOC XML);
insert into employees(empID, empName, empDOC) values (1, 'Tom',
'
Tom
Clinton

');
insert into employees(empID, empName, empDOC) values (2, 'John',
'

');
insert into employees(empID, empName, empDOC) values (3, 'Jerry',
