Frequently Asked Questions

Requests per second math?

Quota divided by window — 1000/day means ~0.7 sustained RPS with burst headroom.

Burst vs sustained?

Buckets absorb bursts; sustained rate must stay under refill, or 429s start.

Per-key or global?

Calculate both — per-key protects neighbors, global protects the service.
