Abstract
Systems and methods to manage and regulate the requests of multiple proxy clients are disclosed. In one aspect, the system and methods disclosed herein aids in configuring proxy server(s) with a rate-limit functionality. Configuration of the rate-limit functionality may be realized by, but not limited to, installing configuration file(s) and/or software application(s) on the proxy server(s). The configuration provides information about the list of restricted and unrestricted domains and their respective request limit specification in a given time frame. Therefore, each time before a proxy server forwards the clients' requests to a target domain, the proxy server checks and ensures that the request count to the particular target domain is well within the limit specified in the request limit specification. Thus, the embodiments described herein aid in preventing the IP addresses of proxy service providers from being blocked or denied from the target websites.
