What is the best way to limit concurrency when using ES6's Promise.all()?

Question

I have some code that is iterating over a list that was queried out of a database and making an HTTP request for each element in that list. That list can sometimes be a rea

Here goes basic example for streaming and 'p-limit'. It streams http read stream to mongo db.

const stream = require('stream');
const util = require('util');
const pLimit = require('p-limit');
const es = require('event-stream');
const streamToMongoDB = require('stream-to-mongo-db').streamToMongoDB;


const pipeline = util.promisify(stream.pipeline)

const outputDBConfig = {
    dbURL: 'yr-db-url',
    collection: 'some-collection'
};
const limit = pLimit(3);

async yrAsyncStreamingFunction(readStream) => {
        const mongoWriteStream = streamToMongoDB(outputDBConfig);
        const mapperStream = es.map((data, done) => {
                let someDataPromise = limit(() => yr_async_call_to_somewhere())

                    someDataPromise.then(
                        function handleResolve(someData) {

                            data.someData = someData;    
                            done(null, data);
                        },
                        function handleError(error) {
                            done(error)
                        }
                    );
                })

            await pipeline(
                readStream,
                JSONStream.parse('*'),
                mapperStream,
                mongoWriteStream
            );
        }
