RVR-PYTHON-429

1. Issue Summary

• Error Encountered: Logicode throttling error from AWSError Code: RVR-PYTHON-429.
• Initial Diagnosis: This error indicates that the number of requests made to an AWS service has exceeded the permitted rate limits. AWS typically returns a 429 Too Many Requests response when a client makes too many requests in a short amount of time. This is common when working with APIs that have defined rate limits per account or per IP address【4:0†source】.

2. Action Steps:

• Understand AWS Rate Limits:
  Review the AWS documentation to understand the limits applied to the specific AWS service you are using. Both account-level limits and API-specific limits could affect your integration.
• Implement Request Throttling:
  If your application's logic doesn't already account for throttling, implementing request throttling or exponential backoff methods can help prevent hitting the rate limits. This involves retrying a failed request after initially waiting for a short period and gradually increasing the wait time between retries.
• Optimize Data Retrieval:
  Reduce the frequency of API calls or the amount of data requested per call if possible. Combining smaller requests into a single call can also help stay within rate limits.
• Monitor Usage and Set Alerts:
  Use AWS CloudWatch or similar tools to monitor API usage and set alerts to notify when you are approaching rate limits.
• Check the specific configuration settings in your Rivery Logic River that might be sending requests too frequently to AWS. Adjust the frequency or optimize the data processing within the river【4:0†source】.
