In a multi-tenant cloud application, a single customer running an aggressive scraper or malfunctioning script can overwhelm your database and degrade performance for all other tenants.
Distributed rate limiting solves this 'noisy neighbor' dilemma. Utilizing sliding-window token bucket algorithms executed inside Redis edge clusters ensures sub-millisecond rate evaluation.
Configuring tiered rate limits based on customer subscription tiers also creates a natural monetization incentive, encouraging high-volume users to upgrade to higher API pricing plans.
AVELIO implements resilient API gateway protection across client infrastructure, guaranteeing system stability and fair resource allocation under heavy load.
