Amazon SP-API Rate Limit

anyone familiar with the rate limit for Orders API

am calling the following EndPoint orders/v0/orders/{}/buyerInfo

It's should be 1 request per second ? and what the meaning of Burst 1 here? i don't understand it at all.

I've already tried to sleep 1 second between each request but i keep getting the following error.

You exceeded your quota for the requested resource.

but if i kept increment the sleep between requests. the API sometimes answer and sometimes not.

The Burst setting and Rate setting work together to control how many requests can be processed by your API. Let's assume you set the throttle to Rate = 100 (requests per second) and the Burst = 50 (requests). With those settings if 100 concurrent requests are sent at the exact same millisecond only 50 would be processed due to the burst setting, the remaining 50 requests would get a 429 Too Many Requests response. Assuming the first 50 requests completed in 100ms each, your client could then retry the remaining 50 requests.
