RE: Multiple Databases.

It is best to use the application server connection pool.
Do not use the Jakarta Struts connection pool.

If you are using tomcat, then I believe you can use dbcp. (I think that's
what Riyad Kalla was talking about too..) We use dbcp but only for
connecting to one pool (and this turned out to be quite simple: just
configure the server.xml), but I think I read that you can create multiple
pools, which seems to be what you need. (My guess is you add more <Resource
elements in your particular context in the server.xml and give all the db
info in the corresponding ResourceParams.. Like I said, i haven't doene this
with multiple databases, but seems like the machinery is there..

This article contains a link with an example and a "How to tell tomcat to
use dbcp" piece: http://www.midrangeserver.com/mpo/mpo081502-story04.html
And here's a detailed how-to:
