Too many calls to AWS Route53 API from kiam (AWS EKS) - Rate exceeded

[plaformsre]

Hello,

We would need guidance on where we can set the interval of how often kiam is making calls to the AWS Route53 API.

Our kiam 3.0 RC1 deployed on AWS EKS (K8S 1.14) as a deamonset (both agent and server, so 7 pods each). Based on AWS Support call, KIAM makes more than 4,000 API calls in 15 min. The limit is 5 calls per second, KIAM is making 7 calls per second.

We get Rate exceeded errors all the time.

Could you please let us know how we ca configure this setting?

Many thanks, D

Kiam doesn't directly interact with the Route 53 api at all, so I'm very uncertain as to why you would be seeing that. Are you sure it's not one of your applications that use Kiam for credentials that is calling the route53 api? Also I would encourage upgrading your version of Kiam, you're currently running a very old release candidate that's not recommended for production use.
