Use Cases and Solutions
📄️ Consume APIs On Behalf of Your Clients
When operating as a company that consumes APIs on behalf of your clients (CoBo company), managing API consumption becomes a critical challenge, especially with unpredictable API rate limits. These limits are dictated by how frequently users trigger API engines, creating dynamic consumption rates across different clients. This variation requires sophisticated quota management to ensure efficient resource allocation and prevent exceeding limits.
📄️ Multiple Consumers Sharing the Same Quota
When multiple consumers (such as different environments or clients) share the same API quota, managing that shared quota can quickly become challenging. Each consumer might have varying levels of traffic, unpredictable usage patterns, and specific priorities. To avoid one consumer monopolizing the quota—resulting in API rate limits for other consumers—you need an efficient strategy to allocate and manage API quotas across these consumers.
