Implementing Precise Per‑Minute API Call Statistics in Java: Multiple Solutions and Best Practices
This article explains why per‑minute API call counting is essential for performance bottleneck detection, capacity planning, security alerts and billing, and presents five concrete Java‑based implementations—including a fixed‑window counter, a sliding‑window counter, AOP‑based transparent monitoring, a Redis time‑series solution, and Micrometer‑Prometheus integration—along with a hybrid architecture, performance benchmarks, and practical capacity‑planning advice.
