Description: Token Bucket Implementation for Python Web Apps (Python 3)
This package contains an implementation of the token bucket algorithm suitable
for use in web applications for shaping or policing request rates. This
implementation does not require the use of an independent timer thread to
manage the bucket state.
.
Compared to other rate-limiting algorithms that use a simple counter, the token
bucket algorithm provides the following advantages:
.
The thundering herd problem is avoided since bucket capacity is replenished
gradually, rather than being immediately refilled at the beginning of each
epoch as is common with simple fixed window counters.
Burst duration can be explicitly controlled.
.
Moving window algorithms are resistant to bursting, but at the cost of
additional processing and memory overhead vs. the token bucket algorithm which
uses a simple, fast counter per key. The latter approach does allow for
bursting, but only for a controlled duration.
.
This package installs the library for Python 3.
