I have a typical Spring/Hibernate Tomcat webapp that has a user_info table. I’m trying to create another webapp that will do CRUD actions on the user_info table. I'm considering sharing the same database between the two apps. (The new app is a really simple app that just runs a job to update the user_info)

I’d like to know if there are any database constraints, performance issues, locking issues, or design gotchas I should watch out for? Thanks!
