Techniques for a Predictive Connection Manager Service (PCMS) to predict when client applications will send service requests to backend services, and proactively establishes connections, caches data, or takes other actions, to reduce latencies between receipt of and response to these service requests. The PCMS analyzes historical usage data for the client applications to identify usage patterns, and uses those usage patterns to proactively scale resources to handle service requests. The PCMS can be implemented as a pass-through proxy for client applications to reduce frictions for managing how users interact with backend services. For instance, the PCMS can install client-side drivers such that updates or patches for the drivers need only be installed on the PCMS rather than on each client device. Further, the PCMS provides interfaces through which users can develop custom drivers for backend services, and also manages software drivers for different service provider networks, thus offering multi-provider connectors.
