Django doesn't implement anything like that, since it's a bit out of scope. Partly (primarily?) because long-term lifecycle management is difficult to get right, particularly for a shared-nothing implementation like Django where process lifecycle is controlled by the web server. The solution is to have a daemon running that manages the shared connections and which understands the normal connection protocol and returns an existing connection when needed. I'm talking something like pgpool for PostgreSQL. No idea if anything similar exists for Sybase.
