AWS Warns Against Excessive API Requests Leading To Service Limitations

AWS has issued a warning to businesses using its services due to an increase in excessive API requests within 5 minutes. The company highlights that this issue could disrupt operations and lead to compliance violations like GDPR or HIPAA. Previous warnings have been issued for similar behavior, often resulting in account-wide restrictions. Customers should check their configurations during development stages or ensure they aren’t testing APIs excessively. AWS recommends implementing request quotas, optimizing code, and using monitoring tools to address the issue. Companies are urged to review their API usage patterns immediately to avoid further penalties and service disruptions.
