REST (Representational State Transfer) is a simple stateless architecture i.e. each operation is entirely defined by the information sent to and received from the service. When a web service uses this architecture, it is known as a REST API.

In order to prevent any kind of misuse and make it available to all, the APIs are rate limited i.e. the number of API requests from a user is limited.
