[ensembl-dev] core api number of parallel process

[Andy Yates]

Hi Kenric,

There are no restrictions on use of the core API. The only thing we ask is if you connect to the public MySQL instances that you do not degrade the service for other users. The rate limit on the REST API is imposed for these same reasons.

If you are hosting your own database copies then we do not impose any restrictions on you
