Abstract

A content distribution and optimization system that receives a plurality of event traffic bursts, generated by a first client computing device, in a first pod from a partition of a messaging bus. Messaging bus is partitioned based on a device identifier (ID) of the first client computing device and comprises a plurality of application launch timestamps. A filtering rule is configured for the device ID of the first client computing device for checking a rate limit of each event traffic burst. First set of event traffic bursts is blocked based on number of events exceeding a threshold value of rate limit of an event traffic burst generated by the first client computing device until a new fixed window is assigned. Event traffic communicated to a metrics aggregation controller is limited to pre-defined rate for the first client computing device. Enrichment of remaining second set of event traffic bursts is performed.
