Question #: 114

You have an Azure API Management (APIM) Standard tier instance named APIM1 that uses a managed gateway.

You plan to use APIM1 to publish an API named API1 that uses a backend database that supports only a limited volume of requests per minute. You also need a policy for AP11 that will minimize the possibility that the number of requests to the backend database from an individual IP address you specify exceeds the supported limit.

You need to identify a policy for API1 that will meet the requirements.

Which policy should you use?

This is a tough one, but I think D is the way to go. Gotta keep those greedy IP addresses in check, you know?

Haha, I bet the backend database just can't handle all the traffic from the 'I love APIs' fan club. Better limit those requests, am I right?

Wait, isn't the ip-filter policy the one that allows you to specify a list of allowed or denied IP addresses? That might be a better fit here.

I'm going with B. The rate-limit policy is designed to handle situations where you need to limit the number of requests, which is exactly what this question is asking for.

I think D is the best option. The rate-limit-by-key policy allows you to set limits based on a key, which would be useful for limiting requests from specific IP addresses.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. The rate-limit policy might work as well, since it can limit the overall number of requests to the backend database.
