Per-Proxy Limits

Apply different rate limits per proxy — configured once in your proxy and enforced everywhere.

Enforcement at the Proxy

Rate-limit decisions are enforced within RequestRocket's serverless infrastructure, before forwarding, so third party applications never exceed your quota.

Notification Alerts

Receive alerts when a rate limit is exceeded. Configure email alerts through our API or dashboard.

Traffic Control

Enforcement in Region

Limits are enforced at the proxy in each region into which you deploy. Decisions happen after authentication and before any request is forwarded to your APIs.
