 Implement a limit on how often a client can call the API within a defined
 timeframe.
 Notify the client when the limit is exceeded by providing the limit number
 and the time at which the limit will be reset.
 Add proper server-side validation for query string and request body
 parameters, specifically, the one that controls the number of records to
 be returned in the response.
 Define and enforce the maximum size of data on all incoming parameters and
 payloads such as the maximum length for strings and maximum number of
 elements in arrays.
