Rate Limiting through @rateLimit directive

Rate limiting is a technique for reducing server load by limiting the number of requests that can be made to a subgraph.

This approach follows the pattern of graphql-rate-limit.

To set rate limit hints in your subgraph schema, the @rateLimit directive definition should be included in the subgraph schema

💡

The gateway’s rate limiting feature should be enabled.
