About Oracle REST Data Services in Autonomous Database
ORDS is a mid-tier Java application that maps HTTP(S) verbs, such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and so on, to database transactions, and returns any results as JSON data.
The Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) application in Autonomous Database is preconfigured and fully managed. ORDS connects to the database using the
low predefined database service with a fixed
maximum number of connections (the number of connections for ORDS does not
change based on the number of ECPUs (OCPUs if your database uses
OCPUs). It is not possible to change the
default ORDS configuration.
See About Customer Managed Oracle REST Data Services on Autonomous Database for information on using an additional alternative ORDS deployment that enables flexible configuration options.
