Feature Description

We need to implement rate limiting for the chatbot to ensure that it handles a defined number of user requests within a specific time frame. Additionally, a message popup should be added to notify users that the chatbot may take time to load. This will improve user experience by setting the correct expectations and preventing overloading of the service.

Use Case

• When the chatbot experiences heavy traffic, requests need to be limited to avoid overloading the server and degrading performance.
• The chatbot currently takes 1-2 minutes to load, and users might assume the service is unresponsive. A pop-up message informing them to wait while the chatbot loads will reduce confusion and frustration.
• The rate-limiting mechanism will restrict users from spamming requests while the chatbot is processing.

Benefits

• Prevent server overload by controlling the number of requests sent to the chatbot.
• Enhance user experience by managing expectations with a clear loading message, reducing the chances of users refreshing or leaving the site.
• Improve the overall performance and reliability of the chatbot, particularly during peak times.
• Create a more scalable and resilient system by managing resources efficiently through rate limiting.
