Make post calls on hold












0















I have a Node.js application and I deployed it on Heroku. The API calls are made from a native app. I am using Postgresql for database (Sequelize as orm) and my db allows maximum 20 connections.



When those connections are full I get an error message "too many connections for role ..." and if there's a post request made at that moment it's not saved.



Is there a way to put the request "on hold" and to complete it as soon as the connection is available?

Instead of dropping these requests outright you could implement a connection pool with Sequelize (docs here and here) which should improve the user experience by limiting the number of connections consumed by the app. This way your application will hold onto those requests for a short while (likely until the platform times them out) but it will at least give your app a chance to process them.
