 ### Create a synchronous app that uses a connection pool

 Connection pooling can improve performance when making multiple, brief connections to the SAP HANA database.  The following sample makes two connections one after another without using a connection pool and then using a connection pool.  It demonstrates how the time taken to make a connection with a connection retrieved from a pool is significantly shorter.

 ### Set up email notification when an alert occurs
 
 The SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) includes a service called the SAP Alert Notification service (ANS) that provides a common way for other services or applications running in the SAP BTP to send out notifications such as an email, a post to a Microsoft Teams or Slack channel, the creation of a ticket in `ServiceNow`, or a webhook to send events to any Internet REST endpoint.  The SAP HANA Cloud database and data lake pass on events to the SAP ANS when an alert is triggered.
