-pgpool is a connection pool server for PostgreSQL. pgpool runs between
-PostgreSQL's clients(front ends) and servers(back ends). A PostgreSQL client can
-connect to pgpool as if it were a standard PostgreSQL server.
+pgpool-II allows multiple PostgreSQL servers (DB nodes) to be
+connected, which enables queries to be executed simultaneously on all
+servers.
-pgpool caches the connection to PostgreSQL server to reduce the overhead to
-establish the connection to it.
+It enables "parallel query" processing. Also, pgpool-II can be started
+as pgpool-I by changing configuration parameters. pgpool-II that is
+executed in pgpool-I mode enables multiple DB nodes to be connected,
+which was not possible in pgpool-I.
