notes: EBS is on-prem / cloud-hosted enterprise software. Throughput is bounded by underlying Oracle
  Database / WebLogic / Application Tier sizing and the Integrated SOA Gateway / REST Services configuration.
  No upstream-published per-second numeric rate limits.
description: Oracle E-Business Suite REST and SOAP throughput is governed by the underlying Oracle WebLogic
  Server thread pools, Database Resource Manager, and Integrated SOA Gateway settings. Customers tune
  these per environment. Standard 503 / 429 handling applies when fronted by a cloud gateway or load balancer.
