Is Using REST Services Directly from the Database a Security Risk?

Allan LaheDec 8 2024

I wanted to configure DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN to allow the database to send requests to external REST services. The DBA disagreed, as direct queries from the database are considered a security risk, especially when directed to external websites.

What is your opinion on this?
Does using REST services directly from the database compromise its security?
