Yes, a rate limiting regulation can be applied to a backend service using preconfigured WAF rules in Cloud Armor. Cloud Armor allows you to create custom security policies that define how traffic should be allowed or blocked based on specific rules, including rate limiting rules. These rules can be applied to specific backend services or entire Cloud Load Balancing instances, enabling you to control traffic flow and prevent high traffic volumes from overwhelming your servers. Additionally, Cloud Armor provides advanced logging and monitoring capabilities, allowing you to track and analyze traffic patterns and identify potential security threats.
