IP Based Rate Limiting?

  1. Does Mashery support any form of rate limiting by client IP address? I am inquiring specifically for client based systems such as mobile applications that could have many devices actively hitting the API. IP based rate limiting would be preferred over application wide key based rate limits.

    Hi Bold,

    Yes we do offer this. Depending on your use case, and applicability... if user accounts are involved, there is a good way to do this via OAuth and our ability to have limits based on application/user combo. IP addresses aren't always a good way to manage capacity.

    Send contact info to support@mashery.com should you want to dig in deeper.

    Thanks!
