PostgreSQL Max Connections Exceeded
Your application crashes with 'sorry, too many clients already' error. The PostgreSQL connection pool has hit its maximum limit.
Replit's PostgreSQL has a limited connection pool, and connections may not be properly released.
Error Messages You Might See
FATAL: sorry, too many clients already
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Connection pool error
Connections are taken from pool exceeding max pool size
Common Causes
- Connection pool not properly closed after queries
- Too many concurrent requests without connection reuse
- Idle connections not timing out
- Database connection leaks in code
- Connection pool size too large for Replit limits
How to Fix It
Configure connection pooling (HikariCP for Spring Boot) with appropriate maximum pool size (8-10 for Replit). Ensure connections are closed after use. Set connection timeout and idle timeout parameters. Monitor active connections via Replit's database dashboard.

Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.
