# bb8 [![Documentation](https://docs.rs/bb8/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/bb8/) [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/bb8.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/bb8) [![Build status](https://github.com/djc/bb8/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/djc/bb8/actions?query=workflow%3ACI) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/djc/bb8/branch/main/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/djc/bb8) [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-blue.svg)](./LICENSE) A full-featured connection pool, designed for asynchronous connections (using tokio). Originally based on [r2d2](https://github.com/sfackler/r2d2). Opening a new database connection every time one is needed is both inefficient and can lead to resource exhaustion under high traffic conditions. A connection pool maintains a set of open connections to a database, handing them out for repeated use. bb8 is agnostic to the connection type it is managing. Implementors of the `ManageConnection` trait provide the database-specific logic to create and check the health of connections.
