I was wondering if this was used at Stripe in Production ?

I saw this article from Stripe blog on Rate Limiting mentioning the usage of Redis and was curious to see if there was any plan to leverage redis-cell ?

I'm afraid to say that it's not! redis-cell is based on the relatively new module system, and we're using AWS ElastiCache for our Redis' in production, which as far as I know does not support it.

We are using throttled in some places for Go apps.

Most of the limiters described in the article are using home grown Ruby/Lua code though, and it's not public (currently the implementation would not make high quality OSS).

Thanks for your interest, and let me know if I can answer anything else.
