Understanding the impact of rate limiting is pivotal for any application developer. Effective rate limiting ensures that your system can handle incoming traffic without degrading performance. Without it, systems can become overloaded, leading to slower response times and potential crashes. On the flip side, overly aggressive rate limits can frustrate users, leading to a poor user experience. Therefore, striking a balance between allowing sufficient traffic while protecting server capacity is key. We'll explore real-world examples where effective rate limiting has been successfully implemented, highlighting both positive outcomes and lessons learned from failures.
