[HOT] Tasking Manager - service update - request limitation

[Dražen Odobašić]

Hi,

we recently had kinda like DDOS attack from the IP subnet 197.239.66.0 which
resulted in a temporary unavailability of the http://tasks.hotosm.org/ around
11:20 CET.

To help maintain service availability we introduced a limit of 10 requests per
second per single IP address. This should not impact normal service usage.

In the case you see a HTTP 503 response - Service Unavailable, please report it
as soon as possible.
