Oracle UTL_TCP

Im currently building a website and it will handle estimately 5,000 credit card transactions a day.

Do you think its okay to use UTL_TCP to communicate to our credit card server to send authorization request. Is there a limitation in terms of number of sockets than can be opened from the Oracle DB since my site can have simultaneous credit card auth request? Or maybe an issue if we decide to use secure socket connection?

What do you think?

thanks,
