The service will aggregate the usage reports // from multiple data plane instances, and distribute Rate Limit Assignments to each instance // based on its business logic. The logic is outside of the scope of the protocol API. // // The protocol is designed as a streaming-first API. It utilizes watch-like subscription model. // The data plane groups requests into Quota Buckets as directed by the filter config, // and periodically reports them to the RLQS server along with the Bucket identifier, :ref:`BucketId // `. Once RLQS server has collected enough // reports to make a decision, it'll send back the assignment with the rate limiting instructions. // // The first report sent by the data plane is interpreted by the RLQS server as a "watch" request, // indicating that the data plane instance is interested in receiving further updates for the // ``BucketId``. From then on, RLQS server may push assignments to this instance at will, even if // the instance is not sending usage reports. It's the responsibility of the RLQS server // to determine when the data plane instance didn't send ``BucketId`` reports for too long, // and to respond with the :ref:`AbandonAction // `, // indicating that the server has now stopped sending quota assignments for the ``BucketId`` bucket, // and the data plane instance should :ref:`abandon // ` // it. // // Refer to Rate Limit Quota :ref:`configuration overview ` // for further details. // Defines the Rate Limit Quota Service (RLQS). service RateLimitQuotaService { // Main communication channel: the data plane sends usage reports to the RLQS server, // and the server asynchronously responding with the assignments. rpc StreamRateLimitQuotas(stream RateLimitQuotaUsageReports) returns (stream RateLimitQuotaResponse) { } } message RateLimitQuotaUsageReports { // The usage report for a bucket. // // .. note:: // Note that the first report sent for a ``BucketId`` indicates to the RLQS server that // the RLQS client is subscribing for the future assignments for this ``BucketId``. message BucketQuotaUsage { // ``BucketId`` for which request quota usage is reported.
