OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that helps Routers exchange IP routes.
OSPF Adjacencies is the established "neighborship" between two OSPF routers in order to make the exchange of routes. In this case, Adjacency means the same as "peering", that the OSPF speakers (routers) are able to "talk" to each other.

RIP is an Interior Gateway Protocol and the most widely accepted routing protocol. It is also known by the name of the Unix daemon program routed. RIP is straightforward: it arranges to have routers to broadcast their entire current routing database periodically OSPF is a link-state algorithm. OSPF specifies a class of messages called link-state advertisements (LSAs) that allow routers to update each other about the LAN and WAN links to which they are connected. When a change is made to the network, LSAs flow between routers. OSPF routers receive link-state updates and store them in a topology database in memory. OSPF networks as an end-station-to-router protocol. OSPF addresses all the deficiencies of RIP, without affecting connectivity to RIP based networks.

the extensive flooding of LSAs throughout the OSPF areathe excessive adjacencies when the number of routers increases
The first step OSPF and IS-IS routers take in building a shortest path first database is to exchange link-state advertisements (LSAs) or link-state packets (LSPs) with neighboring routers. These packets contain information about the router's directly connected neighbors and the state of their links.
To build OSPF and ISIS adjacencies. To verify that packets arriving at the router are allowed by any configured firewall filters.
Within a network segment where a router may have several neighbors, such as an Ethernet network, the OSPF routers elect a designated router (DR). Due to the importance of the DR, a backup DR (BDR) is also elected. The DR will centralize communications - all other routers in that segment will only have a full adjacency with the DR and the BDR - and partial adjacencies with all other routers in the segment.
OSPF LSA throttling helps the dampening of LSA updates in OSPF during times of network instability.
OSPF is short form of open shortest path first. OSPF is based on linked state routing.

There are actually two OSPF and IS-IS
OSPF stands for open shortest path first. OSPF is an exterior routing protocol. OSPF uses Path vector routing algorithm.
Could be because your routers do not support OSPF.
