Reduce database round trips when inserting many rows with FireDAC Array DML, then verify driver support before production.
A Delphi service that opens a connection per request or shares objects across threads will exhaust pools and leak handles. Use one pooled FireDAC connection per logical request, explicit transactions, parameterized SQL, and a least-privilege database identity.
Row-by-row inserts in Delphi often bottleneck on network round trips. FireDAC Array DML batches them into a single call, but memory and error-handling trade-offs apply.
Batch inserts, updates, and deletes with RAD Studio FireDAC Array DML to cut database round-trips.
Concatenating user input into SQL strings is a liability. See how to use TFDQuery parameters in Delphi to separate code from data, reduce injection risk, and avoid type-mapping surprises.
Fetch only the rows your Delphi grid needs by binding PageSize and Offset to FireDAC TFDQuery, with limits and verification steps.
FireDAC lets RadStudio apps keep data access code stable across desktop and mobile by separating connection, command and presentation, with driver swaps instead of rewrites.
Enable FireDAC connection pooling in Delphi VCL/FMX apps to reuse database handles, reduce open latency, and stabilize server connections under concurrent load.
