Is there a way to rate limit clients easily with AWS AppSync? API Gateway has this, and they're pretty similar services. I'd like to be able to throttle individual clients - so one user can't sit there and bang on the API too hard.

Probably not on the top of my wishlist, but would certainly be nice to have.

AppSync recently added support for AWS WAF, allowing you to create rate-based rules: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/appsync-waf/
