问题
I just met the rate limit exceeded error when send an API request. Its rate was about 1 per second. The service is SoftLayer_Resource_Metadata.
So do anyone know the SoftLayer's rate limit strategy? Such as the number of limits, the scope of limit(the same IP or the same account, etc.)
回答1:
the limit is 50 request for second for each user. The SoftLayer_Resource_Metadata service does not need an specific user so when you use this service I recommend do not exceed 50 request for second in your account.
