question - is the rate limiter distributed?

[RichardWright]

Hi!

When using the rate limiter can this same rate limiter be accessed from seperate processes / boxes etc, so it could control in a distributed fashion, the http activity of a cluster? We currently use bottleneck and are assessing bull as a replacement

Thanks!

It is distributed. But I recommend you to use BullMQ if you are new to Bull: https://docs.bullmq.io/guide/rate-limiting
