The Throttling sample policy is used to limit the number of calls for a service. This
topic describes the Throttle policy circuit, and explains how to run
this sample.
Throttling refers to restricting incoming connections and the number of messages to be
processed. It can be applied to XML, SOAP, REST, or any payload, request, or protocol.
Traffic can be regulated for a single Enterprise Gateway or for a cluster of Enterprise Gateways. You
can apply traffic restrictions rules for a service, an operation, or even time of day.
For example, these restrictions can be applied depending on the service name, user
identity, IP address, content from the payload, protocol headers, and so on.
