I have been reading the Jersey 2.17 user guide for possibities around applying governance limits on the exposed RESTLet resources. I am particularly interested in applying limits on incoming requests for a particular Jersey RESTLet resource for a particular client consumer (For example: I want to only allow 10 requests per 30 second from any particular source).

Please let me know if anybody has a feasible approach in mind based on their experience with the native API capabilities. Thanks in advance!

What you can do to achieve this with Restlet is to use the APISpark extension.

This similar question should answer your question: Limit request on a Restlet resource with APISpark restlet extension

Where you can do something like this:

FirewallRule rule = new PeriodicFirewallCounterRule(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS, new IpAddressCountingPolicy());
((PeriodicFirewallCounterRule)rule).addHandler(new RateLimitationHandler(new UniqueLimitPolicy(10)));
FirewallFilter firewallFiler = new FirewallFilter(getContext(), list(rule));
firewallFiler.setNext(router);

To limit the access to your app's Restlet server resources. I hope this helps or at least give you a hint.

  • I am not using the Restlet framework, will APISpark work with Jersey? – javablinders Mar 23 '15 at 11:37
  • @javablinders You tagged your question with 'restlet' so I thought you were using Restlet framework. Anyway I suggest you try Restlet Framework than Jersey, after all Restlet has its Jersey implementation – quarks Mar 23 '15 at 14:02
