My understanding is that Servlets don't run under library lists.

Servlet's only understand classpath. Database connections are the applications responsiblity to maintain.

Are you referring to IBM i host servers, alone? Would you create an
intelligent connection pool manager to determine which tenant each
request belongs to?

That would make a lot of sense. I don't think the default JDBC connection pool in JT400 can handle that kind of thing, but it shouldn't be too hard to create your own.

I can see that. Assign each tenant to their own HTTP server port?
Run 20 instance of the HTTP server, and 20 instances of WAS. Would
that be the best approach?

Or put some kind of tenant identifier on the request so the servlet can use the appropriate jdbc connection.
