Connection string to define the connection pooling pool size

Server=server_add:port_num;Database=database_name;uid=user_name;Password=password;Max Pool Size=100;Min Pool Size=10;

The user can also disable pooling. Connection string to disable pooling is given below

Server=server_add:port_num;Database=database_name;uid=user_name;Password=password;Pooling=False;
