In the documentation it says that the Storefront API cannot be utilized server-side because of its rate limits. What can I do if I want to use Server Side Rendering (SSR)? And how does Hydrogen avoids this problem if it also uses SSR?
If you use a server-side library, the IP address of the request will be your server’s address. To ensure your app is throttled correctly, use a delegate access token and pass it in the Shopify-Storefront-Private-Token header from server contexts. Requests using this authentication method can pass the buyer IP into the Shopify-Storefront-Buyer-IP header.

I've just updated my answer because I had an error in the quote I put. The solution is in the link I mentioned in the "Usage limitations" section. I don't know how to explain it better and I haven't implemented it yet.
Hey everyone 👋. We're now live 😀🎊. Change log entry has been posted here with links to documentation.
