Rate Limiting
[/reɪt ˈlɪmɪtɪŋ/]
Definitions
Automatischer Uebersetzungsentwurf (German) for "Rate Limiting": A technique for controlling the frequency of requests a client can make to an API or service within a given time window. Rate limiting protects systems from abuse, prevents overload, and ensures fair resource allocation among consumers. Responses typically include headers indicating current usage and remaining quota.
“Beispielentwurf: The API returned a 429 Too Many Requests error once rate limiting kicked in at 100 calls per minute.”
