Quotas in AWS Elemental MediaPackage
This section describes the quotas for AWS Elemental MediaPackage. For information about requesting an increase to soft quotas, see AWS service quotas. You can't request an increase to hard quotas.
Live soft quotas
The following table describes quotas in AWS Elemental MediaPackage for live content that can be increased. For information about changing quotas, see AWS Service Quotas.
For some customers, your account quota might be below these published quotas. If you believe
that you encountered a Resource limit exceeded error wrongfully, use the Service Quotas console to
request quota increases
| Resource or operation | Default quota |
|---|---|
| Maximum Live Manifest Length | 15 minutes |
| Maximum Channel Groups | 3 per account |
| Maximum Channels | 10 per channel group |
| Maximum Endpoints per Channel | 10 per channel Each origin endpoint represents the output package that you use. If one channel serves TS or TS encrypted, CMAF or CMAF encrypted content, then that channel has 4 endpoints and falls within the 10 endpoints quota. If you have 10 channels set up this same way, then you still haven't exceeded the quota because each channel uses only 4 endpoints. |
| Manifests per origin endpoint | 25 manifests per origin endpoint |
Live hard quotas
The following table describes quotas in AWS Elemental MediaPackage for live content that can't be increased.
| Resource or operation | Quota |
|---|---|
| Ingest streams per Channel | 20 streams per channel |
| Maximum Content Age for Time-shifted Viewing | 336 hours (14 days) |
| Maximum Time-shifted Manifest Length |
24 hours for all supported output formats |
| Request Rates per Channel Input | 200 requests per second |

NoteThe per Endpoint origination request rate quotas are indicative only and based on typical traffic patterns when using a properly configured CDN. The request rate quotas are applicable for live events, linear channels, and time-shifted viewing. The request rate quotas may be lower under certain conditions like misconfigured CDNs or players generating abnormal levels of origin requests with unique HTTP headers values, or unique query strings values appended to the playback URLs. |
| REST API Requests |
|
| Tracks per Ingest Stream | 10 The maximum number of tracks (audio, video, subtitle, etc.) per stream that you can ingest. |
