Where are Microgateway Quota Counts stored?

[kyisoethinkokyi]

Hello everyone,

1. I would like to know where microgateway quota counts are stored, cassandra nodes in apigee edge or microgatway nodes itself.

2. Can anyone tell me in what situations Redis should be used for storing quota counts?

Thanks

Need more context in this. Assuming your question is about Apigee Edge Microgateway(Nodejs) , the quota is stored locally.  Reddis should be used for strong quota enforcement and consistency however you have to build your own pluggin.

Thanks for replying. Let me ask one more thing.  As you said, quota counts are stored locally on apigee edge microgateway. If so, why edge microgateway is syncing the quota counts with apigee edge while it already has the quota counts locally?

The initial quota is synced from the apigee edge but the quota counts are not synced across the edgemicro for a true count value.  so if there are 2 microgateway serving same api's there quota count will be individual and not synchronized.
