This blog post explains how modern cloud and CDN architectures can cause Layer 7 rate limits to be enforced locally (per edge server, PoP, or region) rather than globally, enabling distributed DDoS attacks to bypass configured thresholds; it advises running distributed DDoS simulations, asking vendors about counter aggregation/synchronization, and tuning defenses accordingly.
