How to rate limit end point?

Generally how do people rate limit endpoints? Do you use a library or use your own code?

Libraries are IMO good enough f.ex. Hammer.Plug.

Sure, you can do this with nginx, Caddy and Traefik and likely others (maybe fail2ban as well?) but I think that’s multi-layered security: your load balancer is more about making sure your traffic is not malicious i.e. directly bombarding you with 1_000 req/sec which should result in an almost immediate ban for the offending IP.

Whereas app-level rate limiter is more like “you are legit but don’t push it”. :smiley:
