Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for regulating access to a database by a server. One exemplary method involves the server receiving one or more requests for an activity with respect to the database and determining an attempted usage for the activity over a monitoring period by a source of the requests. When the attempted usage exceeds an allowed usage of the activity for the monitoring period, the server creates an entry in a cache that includes an identifier associated with the source of the one or more requests. Thereafter, the requested activity with respect to the database on behalf of the source may be prevented based on the entry in the cache.
