Rate Limiting in GRPC

[Husain Dalroti]

Hi Team,

We want to achieve rate limiting on the number of messages to be send by each client on particular stream at cluster level.

If there is any documentation related to this , it would be much hepful.

Thanks !!

So you want to limit the number of messages in an RPC? What’s the use-case?

Yes, we want to limit the number of messages.

- is the limit static or dynamic?

- is the limit set on the client side i.e. the limit could be enforced completely on the client side before messages are sent out?

- so what do you want to happen when a client attempts to send a message above the limit? Should the RPC fail at the client 

side? Or should the server end the RPC with an error?

- or you don't want any RPC to fail but only throttle the message sending until something else happens

Since your high level use case is not clear I had to ask these questions.
