How do I protect myself from AWS Lambda abuse?

I'm creating a serverless website using AWS Lambda, but I'm a bit concerned about potential abuse. How do I protect myself against a user who queries my endpoint a million times?

The API Gateway supports throttling. The defaults are reasonable, but you can alter them however you like. The throttle settings in the console are under the Stages tab of you APIs. There's more info here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/api-gateway-request-throttling.html
