Not sure what exactly you are looking for.
Anyways, some common practice are request for API key, username / password
tokens before providing access to a service.

If you are using Apache there are a bunch of different DoS modules that
you can use:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=apache
+dosie=utf-8oe=utf-8aq=trls=org.mozilla:en-US:officialclient=firefox-a
Also, if you are in full control of the server, you may be able to
configure firewalls for this sort of thing.
It gets more complex when you're attacked with a DDoS (Distributed
Denial of Service) as there's no real hard-and-fast way to prevent them,
as they could genuinely be legitimate requests to your server and not
attacks. As a distributed attack comes from many sources, you can't
reliably differentiate the valid requests from the malicious ones.
