- Throttle requests based on bandwidth.
- Specify quotas based on custom attributes, such as Internet protocol (IP) ranges, JavaScript Object Notation Web Token (JWT) claims, query parameters, and HTTP header values.
- Write customer throttle policies based on the Siddhi SQL-like query language.
- Block API calls almost instantaneously to improve the reaction time of a system allowing quick action to be taken against malicious attacks.
