[ensembl-dev] Dev Digest, Vol 8, Issue 3

[Ahamed Imran Abdul Salam]

Hi Joseph,


The maximum concurrent connections should be less than twelve (12). We 
do not have a REST endpoint that provides such information.


As for the issues with the REST servers earlier, there was another user 
overloading the REST servers with too many requests. Can you please try 
again and see if the REST API is working for you now.


Thanks,

Imran
