Abstract

See full text

Systems, apparatuses and methods for preventing requests to access a system's resources from having a negative impact on higher priority data processing operations being performed by the system. The invention is directed to preventing the number of calls made by a merchant's applications through an application programming interface (API) for access to the lower priority services of a merchant service provider from having a negative impact on the ability of the service provider to perform the processing necessary to support higher priority services. The invention provides a user interface that may be used by a merchant or the service provider to configure the operation of a “throttle” that is designed to generate an alert when the number of calls by a merchant application for access to a specific service provider function or application exceeds a value or limit, where exceeding the value or limit may indicate a malfunction of the merchant's application or an attack by a malicious agent.
