How do I connect to a postgres connection pool with managed databases?

Posted on April 23, 2020

We have decided to use Postgres and digital oceans managed databases for our next project. This database will handle about 10 million page visits a month, with certain points having spikes in traffic. We created a database, and were able to connect to it just fine.

We created a new connection pool, and the connection details are different than our other database. It has a different port and a different database listed. When we try to connect with the connection pool details, we get the error database "test-pool" does not exist

We are also using sequelize 5.xx and node js. Haven’t had any issues up until trying to utilize connection pooling. Any ideas or suggestions?
