Distributed Rate Limiter with Adaptive Throttling

distributed systems rate limiting redis microservices
Prompt
Design a distributed rate limiting system using Redis that can dynamically adjust throttling thresholds based on system load. Implement a sliding window algorithm that supports per-user and global rate limits, with intelligent backpressure mechanisms. The system should handle edge cases like burst traffic, provide granular configuration for different API endpoints, and generate detailed metrics for monitoring. Include circuit breaker logic to prevent cascading failures during extreme load scenarios.
