Description

Summary

It would be nice if Spring Security supported Rate Limiting. This should provide support for the web, but not be servlet API specific since we will want to support reactive environment, batch and possibly integration environments.

Update

Spring Cloud is offering Rate limiting support https://spring.io/blog/2017/07/06/spring-cloud-finchley-m1-is-available

Research direction

Start by reviewing the requested support across web, reactive, batch, and integration environments, and compare it with the Spring Cloud rate-limiting support linked in the update. Define the supported environments and integration boundaries before proposing an implementation; done means an agreed design for non-servlet-specific rate limiting.
