pgbouncer works pretty well for that. I kinda wish it was part of the default Postgres install.



How does pgbouncer work with Amazon RDS (where you can't install separate software)?


you install it on the clients of the servers themselves and "connect locally" to the bouncer or have a bouncer step (server pair) in front of the database connections themselves.


pgbouncer does not need to run on the same machine as the DB. It can run on an EC2 instance in front of your RDS instance.
