I have a geocoding application where I take an incoming IP address and
determine the metro code. I'm getting hit with tons (seems like tons) of
bots. What's a good way of identifying bots? If I can identify them, I can
not perform the geocode function.
Throttle the results. Every IP-address can max resolve X codes pr minute. If you keep getting many increase the response time further.
