Why am I getting random geocoding failures?


so in performing number of geocodes using unstructured queries, i'm getting random failures (missed geocodes, 0 results). take example:

http://dev.virtualearth.net/rest/v1/locations?include=queryparse&query=111%20genesee%20st,%20buffalo%20ny,%2014202&key=<insert key here>

run in browser. you'll answer on first request. hit f5. maybe try few times. doesn't have fast, we're not trying spam service. hit few times. somewhere in first 10 or there failure. you'll 0 results back.

now if have series of addresses, , run each 1 in sequence, you'll miss few. it's bad 10 out of 100 - it's not i'm hitting same address on , on again, because i'm getting failures new address.

why happen? guess maybe sort of load balancing roulette going on , i'm getting bad server , then. makes creating reliable application *really* difficult.

(ps, it's pretty funny "omg no links until verified" freakout includes urls go own service)

this has been answered several times. if getting empty results being rate limited. rate limiting occurs when frequency of request such account exceed free terms of use. rate limiting occurs on trial , basic (non-enterprise) keys when service under lot of load. done prioritize enterprise (licensed/paying customer) requests. if @ header of response see flag there indicates request has been rate limited. documented on page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701703.aspx
