    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for application programming interface (API) request throttling. A request throttling system monitors incoming API requests and applies delays to repeated API requests to avoid an overload and/or disruption in service. Upon receiving an API request from a requesting device, the request throttling system determines a counter value that is used to determine whether to apply a delay to API request. The counter value indicates a number or previous requests received from the requesting device that were directed to the same resource and which resulted in an error. The request throttling system compares the counter value to a threshold value to determine whether to apply a delay to the API request. Applying a delay reduces the speed at which subsequent repeat API requests are received from the requesting device, while still allowing for API requests from the requesting device to be processed.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for lowering network latency for cloud-based services. Service-delivery edge locations allow customers to improve communication-providers public and private network connectivity for improved performance. One method includes operations for performing, by an edge server, a handshake to establish a communication session between a client and a main server, and for exchanging data between the client and the main server via the edge server. The handshake includes exchanging, by the edge server, communication initiation messages with the client, and validating, by the edge server, authentication credentials for the communication session based on the communication initiation messages. The exchanging data comprises forwarding, by the edge server, data requests from the client to the main server through a private connection between the edge server and the main server, and forwarding, by the edge server, data responses from the main server to the client through the private connection.
