Question
Protection against DDoS attack on my Functions

Asked by Raynesz
Is there a way to protect my Functions from a possible DDoS attack that would cause excess charges by calling my Functions thousands times a minute or something similar? What protects me from waking up one day to see that I am thousands in debt? The only thing I 've found so far is the alerts but I don’t think that is a measure of protection.

Hi there,
As of the time being, the Functions Namespaces have a limit of up to 600 invocations per minute. This means that it is not possible to generate thousands of requests.
If you need this limit increased, you can request open a support ticket for this here:
Hope that this helps!
Best,
