API Rate Limiting with Vercel KV
By using Redis with Vercel KV, we can keep a counter of requests by IP address.
For the demo below, you can send a maximum of 5 requests every 10 seconds.
{ "path": "/api/ping", "latency": null, "status": null, "headers": { "X-RateLimit-Limit": "", "X-RateLimit-Remaining": "", "X-RateLimit-Reset": "" }, "data": null }
The pattern we're using in this example is inspired by the GitHub API.
