Why APIs Have Rate Limits? 😳Backend concepts explained #shorts #BackendDeveloper #RateLimitingAdded:
Why do apps block too many requests sometimes? Imagine requesting OTP again and again continuously. Some users or bots can spam the server. Servers would become overloaded and systems could crash. So, APIs use rate limiting. It controls how many requests user can send within a time limit. This improves security, prevents abuse, and protects back-end systems.
