Ensure that a given client is not able to access service resources more than the assigned limit.
The Throttling pattern should be used:
- when a service access needs to be restricted to not have high impacts on the performance of the service.
- when multiple clients are consuming the same service resources and restriction has to be made according to the usage per client.
