Rate Limiting

Cloudflare Queues can be used to implement rate limiting. Instead of directly processing every request, you can enqueue them. A consumer Worker then processes messages from the queue at a controlled rate. This prevents your backend systems from being overwhelmed by sudden spikes in traffic. You can adjust the consumer's processing rate to match the capacity of your backend services.
