Authorization Server

Ref: XE-11425

The Authorization Server is a service provider that generates an OAuth2 based access token to be used for calling REST APIs hosted on the HTTP/2 Server agent that requires the OAuth2 authorization process. The Authorization Server utilizes a platform to run and can be configured to store provisioned scopes and registered clients either in file-based storage or database storage. We currently only support Oracle and PostgreSQL databases for the database storage.
