Flow controller automatically throttling rate of service provided by web API
Abstract:
A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for automatically throttling the rate of service provided by a Web application programming interface (API) for a software service. A flow controller executing on the data processing system assigns a queue to each consumer of the software service. Responsive to receiving a current request for the software service from a given consumer of the software service, a flow controller executing on the data processing system adds the current request to a given queue assigned to the given consumer. The flow controller sends a next request from the given queue to the Web API based on a licensed rate of service of the given consumer.
