RateGuard is a lightweight, self-hosted API rate limiting service for modern applications. It centralizes rate-limit decisions behind a simple HTTP API and supports token bucket, fixed window, and sliding window algorithms with Redis and Lua. Deploy it with Docker, manage rules from a web dashboard, and integrate with Node.js or Python using the official SDKs or using APIs.

📌

Hey everyone, I built RateGuard because rate limiting often ends up being implemented separately inside every service, with different rules and different Redis implementations. RateGuard takes a simpler approach: applications call one HTTP endpoint, it makes the rate-limit decision, and the application decides what to do with ALLOW or DENY. It currently supports token bucket, fixed window, and sliding window, with Redis + Lua for atomic operations, a web dashboard for managing rules, Docker deployment, and Node.js/Python SDKs. The project is open source, and I'd love feedback from anyone building APIs, microservices, or developer infrastructure. GitHub: https://github.com/faizahmd2/rat...
