File: apigateway/latest/developerguide/websocket-api-protect.md

Summary

Updated documentation links from 'quotas and important notes' to 'quotas' in API Gateway throttling section

Security assessment

The change only modifies link text to remove 'and important notes' but does not introduce or modify security-related content. Throttling quotas are operational limits, not direct security controls.

-By default, API Gateway limits the steady-state requests per second (RPS) across all APIs within an AWS account, per Region. It also limits the burst (that is, the maximum bucket size) across all APIs within an AWS account, per Region. In API Gateway, the burst limit represents the target maximum number of concurrent request submissions that API Gateway will fulfill before returning `429 Too Many Requests` error responses.

-Per-account limits are applied to all APIs in an account in a specified Region. The account-level rate limit can be increased upon request - higher limits are possible with APIs that have shorter timeouts and smaller payloads. To request an increase of account-level throttling limits per Region, contact the [AWS Support Center](https://console.aws.amazon.com/support/home#/). For more information, see [Amazon API Gateway quotas and important notes](./limits.html). Note that these limits can't be higher than the AWS throttling limits.
