Rate Limiting per Group

[BK01]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Rate limits are applied to endpoints, or at anonymous calls vs. API key holders.

Describe the solution you'd like

Implement functionality to allow API owner to set a separate (or the same) rate limit per group. This will allow for a more detailed approach to rate limiting based on individual groups.

Kong doesn't support plugins (e.g. rate-limiting) by group. Only by consumer or for a whole API.

In fact kong doesn't even have a concept of a group. It has acls, which are like groups, but it's not a concrete concept. An acl for a API is just a list of group names. And for a user they have a list of group names they are a member of. But there isn't a group object that things could be tied to.

This functionality would likely require deep architectural changes within kong for it to work, or a new plugin that has it's own data.

I'd like to hold off on this to version 1.2.0 once we get the existing 1.1.0 functionality finished.

Issue on hold. To be re-evaluated after 1.1.0.
