API Gateway - Throttling / Rate Limiting / Max Incoming requests to API gateway

I would like to know in which policy in API gateway we can implement Throttling & Rate Limiting.

Can we implement both at the same time ?

Also, where can add max limit size for all API’s (maximum thread pool size) ?

Hi Sandeep,
API Gateway has two policies - Under Threat protection, we have a Denial of service through which you can throttle the incoming requests. Please note that this global setting applies to all the API calls coming to the system.

We also have a Traffic optimization policy which can rate limit the API calls for the duration configured. We can implement both of the policies at the same time.

Note: Denial of Service policy is global, whereas Traffic optimization can be configured globally for multiple APIs and at the API level.

If you use the on-premise variant, we can configure the thread pool size in the Integration server Admin page.
