A web server has crashed due to an overwhelming surge of requests, resulting in a “429 Too Many Requests” error. This technical issue prevents users from accessing certain websites and online services.
The problem occurred when the server became flooded with a large number of concurrent connections, exceeding its capacity. As a result, the server was unable to process new requests, leading to the error message displayed by most web browsers.
To mitigate this issue, website administrators can implement measures such as rate limiting, caching, and content delivery networks (CDNs) to distribute the workload and prevent overloading of the server.
