Re: Connections spike

Hi Hajesh.
The application is responsible for opening the connections.
But you can having some locks or slow queries that cause the application to
open more connections, since the current number of opened connections were
not responding to application in good time.
You need to revise your queries in the pg_stat_activity and talk to your
Dev Guys.
