Golimit – Ringpop-based distributed and decentralized rate limiter

In plain words

Golimit is a distributed and decentralized rate limiter built on Ringpop technology. It's designed for developers who need to control request rates across multiple servers without relying on a central authority. The tool uses a ring-based peer-to-peer architecture to coordinate rate limiting across nodes, making it suitable for systems requiring scalable traffic management without single points of failure.

  Hi HN! I built a distributed rate limiter using the token bucket algorithm with Redis backing. Key highlights: • 50,000+ requests&#x2F;second throughput with <2ms P95 latency • Redis-backed distributed state for multi-instance deployments • 18 REST API endpoints for rate limiting, config, and monitoring • 265+ tests including load tests and integration tests • Docker&#x2F;Kubernetes ready with comprehensive documentation Built with Java 21 + Spring Boot. Perfect for protecting APIs, microservices, or SaaS platforms from abuse. The pain point I solved: existing solutions were either too…
