What are some other rate limiting techniques?

What are some other rate limiting techniques besides token bucket?

Other rate limiting techniques include leaky bucket, fixed window, sliding window, and dynamic rate limiting.

Can you explain how the leaky bucket algorithm works?

Sure! The leaky bucket algorithm allows requests to be processed at a constant rate, smoothing out bursts.

What about fixed window rate limiting?

Fixed window rate limiting counts requests in a fixed time frame, resetting the count at the end of that period.

Are there any advantages to using sliding window over fixed window?

Yes, sliding window provides a more flexible approach by allowing requests to be counted over a rolling time frame.
