Abstract
Techniques and solutions are described for throttling automated polling requests. For example, an automated polling request that is generated by a web page can be received and a decision can be made to throttle, or not throttle, the automated polling request. The decision can be made based on comparison of the automated polling request with previous automated polling requests (e.g., during a throttling time period). For example, repetitive automated polling requests that occur during a throttling time period can be throttled.
