Tried out connetion pool and it worked great for read queries. However, when saving, the queries doesn't seem to commit and hence not able to write anything to db.
Not 100% sure its the commit not working, assuming so because there were no errors in the output.

Config -

'default': {
'ENGINE': 'dj_db_conn_pool.backends.oracle',
'NAME': 'xxx',
'USER': 'xxxx',
'PASSWORD': 'xxx',
'CONN_MAX_AGE': 250, # For ATP, the timeout period at db end seen to be 5 mins.
'POOL_OPTIONS': {
'POOL_SIZE': 5,
'MAX_OVERFLOW': 5,
'autocommit': True,
},
}
