Abstract
Techniques for dynamic throttling of scan requests for multiple scanners in a cluster of nodes are described. An apparatus may comprise a dynamic throttling service component for executing the dynamic throttling of scan requests for the multiple scanners in the cluster of nodes. The dynamic throttling service component operative to estimate, by the scanner proxy, a resource limit count value representative of resource capacity for servicing scan requests for each one of the multiple scanners in the cluster of nodes; detect a first scan request exceeds the resource limit count value for a first scanner; dynamically throttle each subsequent scan request for the first scanner in response to the first scan request exceeding the resource limit count value; and revise the resource limit count value, by the scanner proxy, for the first scanner.
