The RESTlets are scripts that allows us to access NetSuite resources using token based authentication. However, there are concurrency limits. Suitelets are also scripts that allows us to do the same but there is no access validation/authentication. My question is that if we ignore the authentication, does suitelet script has some concurrency limit? How NetSuite handles this when there are too many of requests to a suitelet? Does it impact the process/scripts running inside of NetSuite? Does suitelets occupy the process queues available inside NetSuite?
Thanks...

07/12/2023, 1:47 PMSuitelets have authentication by default. Concurrency is for external callers, Suitelets should not consume 'processors'.

07/12/2023, 3:02 PMI dont think suitelets can be treated as no-authentication restlets, I'm pretty sure a suitelet available externally - whilst it does not require TBA, wont accept non-browser based interactions
I'm pretty certain the external suitelet cant be used as a webhook endpoint

07/12/2023, 4:51 PMAs long as the caller meets the requirements for invoking a Suitelet, it doesn't matter what application it is. Indeed, a suitelet cannot know that the caller is a browser and not some other tool.

07/12/2023, 8:49 PMYou also need a pretty good reason for making a suitelet available without login. Netsuite is reallllllly cracking down on that with apps and whatnot if that's what you're building.

07/12/2023, 9:44 PMSuiteScript 2.x Suitelet Script Type describes the concurrency limit for suitelets
battk
07/12/2023, 9:45 PMits not actually enforced, there is no limit, you can go until your server runs out of resources to handle your request

07/12/2023, 9:45 PMalthough if you consistently abuse it and cause slowdowns, netsuite may investigate your account

07/13/2023, 7:46 PMsounds like an easy fix with a UE on the employee record to disable / modify the code when a user with "@netsuite.com" gains access to the instance
