TNS-connection closed error while updating oracle tables from Informatica powercenter

I often get below error while running some sessions in Informatica Powercenter. The session is supposed to insert/update some records in oracle tables.

Username USER123 DB Error -1
Database driver Error...
Function Name: Logon
ORA-12537: TNS-connection closed
Database Error: Failed to connect to database using user [USER123] and connection string [ORCL123]

This is totally random. I have ran the same sessions sometimes smoothly without a singe hitch. But sometimes the error comes back again and again. Whenever it occurs, stays for 5 mins max, means if I restart the session immediately after failure, it will fail again. But if I wait for 5 mins and restart them again, it runs successfully. But the only problem is it comes back again in another half an hour or so.

Can somebody enlighten me to get a probable resolution for the error?

Do check the number of connections allowed on the Oracle instance if they are exceeding intermittently by other users and refusing your user connection from Informatica.
