We are getting ready to hire a JAVA Developer, and I was asked if I wanted to ask some questions relating to the database.... or to see if we get along. Connection pooling comes to mind, not imbedding code that would become a cpu issue, etc. Not having much experience with Java, do anyone have questions I could entertain? Some of you may have had such an experience already, and could pass on a couple questions you wish you had asked, or would ask next time.
