Building a Production-Ready Rate Limiter with Spring Boot This is a long-term Learn in Public project where I'll be designing, building, testing, and improving a complete Rate Limiter from scratch using Java and Spring Boot. The goal is not just to make it work, but to understand how real-world backend systems protect APIs from abuse, overload, and excessive traffic. Throughout this series we'll cover: ✅ System Design ✅ Spring Boot Development ✅ REST APIs ✅ API Gateway Concepts ✅ Rate Limiting Algorithms ✅ Fixed Window ✅ Sliding Window ✅ Token Bucket ✅ Redis-Based Rate Limiting ✅ Request Filtering ✅ Error Handling ✅ Testing ✅ Production Best Practices Every stream documents the complete journey — from planning and architecture to implementation and real-world understanding. Whether you're learning Java, Spring Boot, Backend Development, System Design, or preparing for Software Engineering interviews, feel free to follow along. 📌 Project: Rate Limiter ☕ Tech Stack: Java Spring Boot Redis REST APIs Docker later API Gateway concepts Cloud Deployment later 💡 Learning in Public Building one project at a time. #Java #SpringBoot #BackendDevelopment #SystemDesign #SoftwareEngineering #RateLimiter #APIGateway #Redis #LearnInPublic #CodingLive #JavaDeveloper #IndieDev
