Rate limiting

This article is about computer networks. For the rate-limiting step in chemical kinetics, see Rate-determining step.

In computer networks, rate limiting is used to control the rate of requests sent or received by a network interface controller. It can be used to prevent DoS attacks[1] and limit web scraping.[2]

Research indicates flooding rates for one zombie machine are in excess of 20 HTTP GET requests per second,[3] legitimate rates much less.

Rate limiting should be used along with throttling pattern to minimize the number of throttling errors. [4]
