I agree, but I’m leaning towards quota-by-key. It seems more specific.

I feel like quota-by-key might be more about total requests over a period, but I’m leaning towards rate-limit for this scenario.

I’m a bit confused about the difference between rate-limit and rate-limit-by-key. Wouldn't both work for limiting requests?

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think rate-limit is the right choice since it controls the number of requests over time.

I think the policy we need is related to limiting requests, but I'm not sure if it's rate-limit or quota-by-key.
