throttle

DEPRECATED

This component is deprecated and will be removed in the next major version release. Please consider moving onto alternative components.

Throttles the throughput of a pipeline to a maximum of one message batch per period. This throttle is per processing pipeline, and therefore four threads each with a throttle would result in four times the rate specified.

# Config fields, showing default values
label: ""
throttle:
  period: 100us

The period should be specified as a time duration string. For example, '1s' would be 1 second, '10ms' would be 10 milliseconds, etc.

Alternatives

It's recommended that you use the rate_limit processor instead.

Fields

period

The period to throttle to.

Type: string
Default: "100us"
