I think they mean the application connections from the UI to the backend, not backend SQL user login connection limits.
JAVA would be Hakari max_pool = 10 or something to that effect.
(I've been through this before), but you should check the requirement.

Solution 1: explain to your compliance department that it's pointless to worry about the connection limit for a role
thatcan't log in.
Solution 2: do a manual UPDATE on pg_authid. This would have to be done over after any major-version upgrade, though.
