Master Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud - Step 29 – Exploring Rate Limiting and BulkHead Features of Resi

The video tutorial covers the concepts of rate limiting and bulkhead patterns using the Resilience4j framework. It explains how to configure rate limiting to control the number of API calls within a specified time frame and demonstrates its implementation. The tutorial also introduces the bulkhead pattern, which limits the number of concurrent calls to an API, and provides configuration steps. The session concludes with a brief introduction to Docker, highlighting its compatibility with microservices.

What is rate limiting and how does it function in API management?

How can you configure different rate limits for various API methods?

What parameters do you need to set when configuring rate limiting in application properties?

How does the rate limiter affect the success of API calls when limits are reached?

Explain the concept of bulkhead in the context of microservices.

What is the significance of setting a maximum number of concurrent calls in a bulkhead configuration?

Discuss the relationship between Docker and microservices as mentioned in the text.
