Pre-built solutions:

• https://github.com/tom-draper/api-analytics
• https://withcabin.com/
• https://www.honeycomb.io/ via opentelemetry (supports tracing and performance analysis) example here

Home-made:

• Create middleware that pushes analytics into an MPSC channel, that is processed in batch and stored in the local database. https://github.com/antifuchs/governor for rate limiting. Column for hits, column for timestamp, each batch records number of hits at the given timestamp.
