Advanced Distributed Rate Limiting Service

rate-limiting distributed-systems redis api-management
Prompt
Design a horizontally scalable rate limiting service using PHP and Redis that can handle complex rate limit rules across multiple services and API endpoints. The service must support sliding window algorithms, differentiate between user types (free/premium), handle burst traffic, and provide detailed metrics about rate limit interactions. Include a mechanism for dynamically adjusting rate limit thresholds based on system load and user behavior.
