Role Description
Description
AWS is the backbone for the world's software. In order to successfully support this mission we build large scale services that support trillions of transactions. In order to ensure that these services stay up and continue to work for everyone that depend on them we need to protect them from overload. This is where AWS Throttling comes in.
The AWS Throttling Service is a managed service for distributed rate limiting that protects AWS services from unexpected traffic spikes. It gives service owners near infinite throttle scaling, a more efficient throttling client, and better safety for throttle rule configuration and updates. Customers of AWS Throttling have better price-performance, more accuracy, and increased flexibility in tuning more complex throttling decisions. The AWS Throttling platform supports throttle rule analysis and traffic insights visible in the console, along with partner integrations such as Service Quotas in visibility mode.
