Welcome to the database-rest-api wiki!

The Database Rest API acts like a proxy between various services that require access to Data from a Database.


Why a separate service to read data from a database instead of having its own data store ?
Using such a service is advantageous in a situation where you need many services to have read only access to a lot of data from one or many different databases. It would be cumbersome as well as redundant to have all of those services implement database connectivity, connection pooling etc.
