The memquota adapter can be used to support Istio’s quota management
system. Although functional, this adapter is not intended for production
use and is suited for local testing only. The reason for this limitation
is that this adapter can only be used in meshes where there is a single
instance of Mixer running for the whole mesh (i.e. non-HA configuration)
and if that single instance crashes, all outstanding quota values will
be lost.
The amount of time allocated quota remains valid before it is
automatically released. This is only meaningful for rate limit
quotas, otherwise the value must be zero.
