Choreo Rate Limits

Choreo applies plan-level monthly request quotas (2M on Developer, up to 5M on Team, unlimited on Enterprise) at the platform edge. In addition, customers configure per-API rate-limit policies through Choreo API Management — these are user-defined throttling tiers (Bronze / Silver / Gold or custom) attached to individual APIs and subscriptions, not global platform numbers. WSO2 does not publish a single per-second platform throttle; the practical RPS depends on the policy attached to each API and the underlying gateway sizing.

Choreo Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Choreo on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 4 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_month and varies.

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, serverError, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include API Management, Cloud Native, Platform Engineering, and Rate Limiting.

Customers attach throttle policies to APIs and subscriptions; the policy defines requests per minute / hour / day and is enforced at the Choreo gateway.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
On 429, retry with exponential backoff and jitter; honor Retry-After when present.
Configurable Throttling
Use Choreo API Management throttling policies to set per-subscription and per-API request ceilings rather than relying solely on the plan-level monthly cap.
Soft vs Hard Caps
The plan-level monthly request quota is a hard cap on Developer / Team; per-API throttling policies can be tuned without changing plan tier.
