tRestRequest - Rate Limiting

root — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 08:57:18 GMT

I am currently using TOS ESB 6.3.1. Is there any inbuilt capability to achieve rate limiting on the requests received by tRestRequest?

Something to the effect that I do not process the requests if more than 1 request comes in every minute?

How can one achieve such a functionality?

Thanks.

Hi,

there is not an direct option in tRESTRequest but you have at least to quick once using either e.g. our Routes or a Reverse Proxy:

1) Using a Route with the cThrottle component (https://help.talend.com/reader/94r2oXE1HkgazV8BInnTCQ/_VdW3DCr9PbSxm9MYesW6w ) but this is a route you have to put in-front of your tRESTRequest service. So you need the ESB REST DataService + and ESB Route

2) something also quite popular is to use a reverse proxy like NGInx (https://www.nginx.com/blog/rate-limiting-nginx/ )

HTH,

@dlenzen: Thank you for the suggestions. I guess I have to re-write my code as a route to use this.

Will this also be able to handle scenarios like:
Limit requests per IP (or any other identifier within the payload) per minute?

What I am trying to achieve is if a client sends multiple requests within a specified time frame, it should be rejected saying "Rate Limit exceeded" or similar.
