- Configurable connection limits (DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT=20)
- Idle timeout management (DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT=10)
- Connection cycling and health validation
- Process termination signal handling

🛠️ New Infrastructure:
- lib/database-pool.ts - Advanced pooling configuration
- app/api/admin/database-health/route.ts - Connection monitoring
- Enhanced lib/prisma.ts with dual-mode support
- Comprehensive documentation in docs/database-connection-pooling.md
- Graceful shutdown handling in lib/schedulers.ts

🎛️ Environment Configuration:
- USE_ENHANCED_POOLING=true for production optimization
- DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT for pool size control

- Automatic enhanced pooling in production environments

📈 Expected Impact:
- Eliminates connection pool exhaustion under load
- Reduces memory footprint from idle connections
- Improves scheduler performance and reliability
- Enables better resource monitoring and debugging
- Supports horizontal scaling with proper connection management

Production-ready connection pooling with monitoring and health checks!

+# Database Connection Pooling Guide
+
+This document explains how to optimize database connection pooling for better performance and resource management in the LiveDash application.
+
+## Overview
+
+The application now supports two connection pooling modes:
+
+1. **Standard Pooling**: Default Prisma client connection pooling
+2. **Enhanced Pooling**: Advanced PostgreSQL connection pooling with custom configuration
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Add these variables to your `.env.local` file:
+
+```bash
+# Database Connection Pooling Configuration
+DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT=20          # Maximum connections in pool
+DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT=10              # Idle timeout in seconds
+USE_ENHANCED_POOLING=true             # Enable advanced pooling (production recommended)
+
+# Optional: Add pool parameters to DATABASE_URL for additional control
+DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db?connection_limit=20&pool_timeout=10"
+```
+
+### Pooling Modes
+
+#### Standard Pooling (Default)
+
+- Uses Prisma's built-in connection pooling
+- Simpler configuration
+- Good for development and small-scale deployments
+
+#### Enhanced Pooling (Recommended for Production)
+
+- Uses PostgreSQL native connection pooling with `@prisma/adapter-pg`
+- Advanced monitoring and health checks
+- Better resource management
+- Detailed connection metrics
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Fixed Issues
+
+1. **Multiple PrismaClient Instances**:
+   - ❌ Before: Each scheduler created its own PrismaClient
+   - ✅ After: All modules use singleton pattern from `lib/prisma.ts`
+
+2. **No Connection Management**:
+   - ❌ Before: No graceful shutdown or connection cleanup
+   - ✅ After: Proper cleanup on process termination
+
+3. **No Monitoring**:
+   - ❌ Before: No visibility into connection usage
+   - ✅ After: Health check endpoint and connection metrics
+
+### Key Files Modified
+
+- `lib/prisma.ts` - Enhanced singleton with pooling options
+- `lib/database-pool.ts` - Advanced pooling configuration
+- `lib/processingScheduler.ts` - Fixed to use singleton
+- `lib/importProcessor.ts` - Fixed to use singleton
+- `lib/processingStatusManager.ts` - Fixed to use singleton
+- `lib/schedulers.ts` - Added graceful shutdown
+- `app/api/admin/database-health/route.ts` - Monitoring endpoint
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Health Check Endpoint
+
+Check database connection health:
+
+```bash
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" \
+     http://localhost:3000/api/admin/database-health
+```
+
+Response includes:
+
+- Connection status
+- Pool statistics (if enhanced pooling enabled)
+- Basic metrics (session counts, etc.)
+- Configuration details
+
+### Connection Metrics
+
+With enhanced pooling enabled, you'll see console logs for:
+
+- Connection acquisitions/releases
+- Pool size changes
+- Error events
+- Health check results
+
+## Performance Benefits
+
+### Before Optimization
+
+- Multiple connection pools (one per scheduler)
+- Potential connection exhaustion under load
+- No connection monitoring
+- Resource waste from idle connections
+
+### After Optimization
+
+- Single shared connection pool
+- Configurable pool size and timeouts
+- Connection health monitoring
+- Graceful shutdown and cleanup
+- Better resource utilization
+
+## Recommended Settings
+
+### Development
+
+```bash
+DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT=10
+DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT=30
+USE_ENHANCED_POOLING=false
+```
+
+### Production
+
+```bash
+DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT=20
+DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT=10
+USE_ENHANCED_POOLING=true
+```
+
+### High-Load Production
+
+```bash
+DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT=50
+DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT=5
+USE_ENHANCED_POOLING=true
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Pool Exhaustion
+
+If you see "too many connections" errors:
+
+1. Increase `DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT`
+2. Check for connection leaks in application code
+3. Monitor the health endpoint for pool statistics
+
+### Slow Database Queries
+
+If queries are timing out:
+
+1. Decrease `DATABASE_POOL_TIMEOUT`
+2. Check database query performance
+3. Consider connection pooling at the infrastructure level (PgBouncer)
+
+### Memory Usage
+
+If memory usage is high:
+
+1. Decrease `DATABASE_CONNECTION_LIMIT`
+2. Enable enhanced pooling for better resource management
+3. Monitor idle connection cleanup
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always use the singleton**: Import `prisma` from `lib/prisma.ts`
+2. **Monitor connection usage**: Use the health endpoint regularly
+3. **Set appropriate limits**: Don't over-provision connections
+4. **Enable enhanced pooling in production**: Better resource management
+5. **Implement graceful shutdown**: Ensure connections are properly closed
+6. **Log connection events**: Monitor for issues and optimize accordingly
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Consider implementing:
+
+1. **Connection pooling middleware**: PgBouncer or similar
+2. **Read replicas**: For read-heavy workloads
+3. **Connection retry logic**: For handling temporary failures
+4. **Metrics collection**: Prometheus/Grafana for detailed monitoring
