    • Gateway
    • This would be an enhancement to the Gateway, so this would be relevant to the environment in which APICast is provisioned.

      When making calls to the gateway on a service that has rate limits, it would be nice if the HTTP Response Headers would contain the following:
      headerLimit: The limit being applied to the service
      headerRemaining: How many requests remain before the limit is reached.
      headerReset: The number of seconds until the limit is reset.

      This functionality is part of APIMan and is described by the following:
      http://www.apiman.io/latest/user-guide.html#_rate_limiting_policy

      A related issue is https://issues.jboss.org/browse/THREESCALE-121, but the intent of this Issue is clearly identify what should be in the headers.
