Lately I have gotten the error message

Throttling: Rate exceeded

very often when I start my application via

sst start

. Is it possible to find out what causes the Throttling? From the stack trace I am only able to see that is was thrown by the AWS SDK. It always occurs after the console prints the

SST Console: <https://console.serverless-stack.com>

line. If the error is not thrown, which happens after I wait between 10 - 30 minutes, it will print

Debug session started. Listening for requests...

and work again

You could try to find out which api call it is by following these steps: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/cloudtrail-rate-exceeded/

Thanks for the guide. Turns out the

DescribeStackResource

event causes this issue. It seems to be called 8 times at the same time and this causes an

ThrottlingException

Is there anything we can do on our side to mitigate this problem?

You could maybe try to deploy single stacks to find out which stack it is and then further narrow it down to which resource exactly is causing this. Maybe post the stack config of the respective stack in order for somebody to notice anything unusual in your setup

@Maged Mortaga how many stacks do u have in ur app?

Including the debug stack 13

I see.

So for the time being we just removed the code in question locally and it solved the issue. So yeah this seems to be the issue. I don’t really know what this is used for because the Console and everything else also just works fine

yeah this is no longer used with the new event system we have, will remove this
