Welcome to your interview.
The question is on your right: Design an ML Rate Limiting Service. Take a moment with it first.
Talk your thinking through with me if you like - when you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes). Discussion and graded submissions share your five interviewer interactions, so spend them well.
You are building a shared rate-limiting service for a distributed platform with many microservices. Static thresholds are causing false blocks during normal bursts and missing abusive traffic patterns, so the team wants an ML-assisted system that can adapt limits by client, endpoint, and behavior.
How would you design a rate-limiting service that can handle millions of requests per minute across multiple microservices?
